Summary

This randomized controlled trial will evaluate people who have moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and have been newly prescribed a Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) machine. Patients with suboptimal adherence, defined by the Center of Medicare and Medicaid criteria (\<70 % usage and \<4 hours of average daily PAP usage) will be identified. The purpose of this research is to examine the impact of the sleep apnea management (SAM) grouped based-intervention on positive airway pressure adherence and patient report outcomes questionnaires (quality of life, daytime sleepiness and depressive symptoms) and PAP barrier questionnaire compared to a patient group managed by regular non-sleep prescribing provider.

SAM Clinic Intervention

SAM Clinic is a sleep provider led team comprised of either a sleep clinician or sleep nurse practitioner along with sleep nurses and or durable medical equipment representative. The provider interacts with each patient personally. Various modes of trouble shooting of PAP related issues are tailored to solve PAP adherence issues including mask complaints, nasal issues, pressure intolerance, anxiety, and other related barriers to PAP adherence. When the provider is seeing patients individually other patients have the opportunity to interact and offer informal interpersonal support to other participants in dealing with similar PAP issues. The provider makes an individualized follow-up plan for each patient, which may include another SAM visit or referral back to the non-sleep provider.
