mPAP Trial Summary

This trial will test if a new program with wearable tech and personalized reports can help adults with sleep apnea better use their prescribed therapy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with obstructive sleep apnea who have been prescribed positive airway pressure therapy but aren't using it as recommended. They must be willing to use their current PAP device for 28 days and have a compatible electronic device for the wearable app. People with unstable illnesses, planned surgeries, or certain conditions like heart failure are not eligible.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing a new program that uses consumer wearables to monitor oxygen levels during sleep and provides weekly reports. It aims to see if this leads to better use of positive airway pressure therapy compared to those receiving usual care without the immediate intervention.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-invasive monitoring through wearable devices, there may be minimal side effects such as skin irritation from the wearable, discomfort from increased awareness of health data, or privacy concerns related to data sharing.
