Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Change in OSA self-management efficacy as measured by the Survey of OSA Functional Health Literacy (SOFHL)
Secondary outcome measures
Change in Attentional Failures as measured by previously validated questions assessing Attentional Failures.
Change in Daytime sleepiness as measured by the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS).
Change in OSA general knowledge as measured by the SOFHL.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What potential benefits does this clinical study seek to bring about?

"The primary goal of this trial, measured over a given time frame, is to evaluate change in OSA self-management efficacy as captured by the Survey of OSA Functional Health Literacy (SOFHL). Secondary objectives include assessing changes in daytime sleepiness with the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), appraising attentional failures via self-reported questions, and measuring levels of general knowledge related to OSA using SOFHL. Baseline SEMSA scores will be compared against post-intervention responses."
