Summary
This trial will compare the effects of two different methods of care on patients with a new diagnosis of OSA who have been admitted to the hospital for ADHF. One group of patients will receive standard care, while the other group will receive early telemedicine care that includes motivational enhancement. The trial will follow patients for six months to assess the impact of the different methods of care on things like patient reported outcomes, hospital readmissions, and continuity of care.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients hospitalized with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) who are newly diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA, REI ≥5), have not used PAP therapy before, and agree to use it. Excluded are those with central predominant apnea, unstable vital signs, dementia, prior PAP use, inability to consent or participate in video calls.
What is being tested?
The study tests if a telemedicine program providing intensive motivational support (TIME) can improve adherence to positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy over standard care. It also looks at the effect on patient outcomes and hospital readmissions within 6 months after discharge.
What are the potential side effects?
While this trial focuses on behavioral intervention rather than medication side effects may include discomfort from using PAP devices or potential stress from frequent telemedicine sessions.
