Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • CPAP Therapy Adherence

    Subject use of CPAP device will be monitored electronically. Subjects will be randomized to educational intervention of either viewing a video or reading a pamphlet prior to in-laboratory split night polysomnogram (sleep study) and initiation of CPAP therapy, and CPAP adherence rates of the two groups will be compared and reported.

    30 days post in-lab split night polysomnogram

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Subject compliance with sleep clinic appointment

    within 3 months after the in-laboratory split night polysomnogram

  • Patient Knowledge About Sleep Apnea and CPAP Therapy

    1 day post in-laboratory split night polysomnogram

  • Patient Satisfaction With the in-laboratory split night polysomnogram

    1 day post in-laboratory split night polysomnogram

  • CPAP Therapy Adherence

    1 month post sleep clinic visit or the date of the missed sleep clinic visit
