Summary

The objective of this trial is to evaluate the use of a video-assisted training for the use of a home-respiratory polygraph for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea compared to standard training by a nurse.

A clinical trial is conducted to this effect. One arm is video-assisted training and the other arm is conventional training by a nurse.

Conditions

  • Obstructive Sleep Apnea of Adult

Interventions

OTHER

Video-assisted training

Patients received a QR code and a link for access to a YouTube video recorded to this effect where the process of setting up the respiratory polygraph was explained. The contents of the video were the same as those in the face-to-face instructions. The visualization of the video was at home, and it could be viewed as many times as necessary.

OTHER

Nurse training

A trained nurse with long experience in home sleep studies explained the setup of the respiratory polygraph. At the end of the intervention doubts about the procedure were addressed. Patients did not have access to the video.
