Brief Summary

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the first-line treatment for sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome (OSA). The aim of this study is to know the results in adherence to CPAP and health related outcomes in patients with OSA through a comprehensive and multidisciplinary program based on stratification and individualized care plans, including the motivational interview. Methods: A multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT) is designed. The control group will follow the usual treatment, while the intervention group (PIMA) will follow the treatment according to the stratification label based on a comprehensive assessment. This label determines a personalized treatment plan for each patient, which includes different channels (home, telephone, care center) and the use of the motivational interview in each of the interventions with the patient. The main outcome was adherence. Secondary outcomes were quality of life, emotional state, activities, social relationships, perceived competence and motivation.

Study Arms (2)

PIMA Group

EXPERIMENTAL

1. MEntA: Educational \& Training Program 2. Stratification: Identification of Personal Variables (Age, Level of study, Work status, preference of care attention, digital behaviour) 3. Adherence evaluation: Evaluation of Perceived Competence, Quality of Life, Mood, Activities, Social relations and Social Support 4. Identification of Care plan and Schedule next visits 5. Follow-up D21-D90-D120-D180 depending of the care plan, through the channel that belong for each care plan

Behavioral: Motivational Interview (MI) & Adherence Follow-Up

Control

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

1. Training program 2. Schedule next visits 3. Follow-up D21-D90-D120-D180 using the same process: visit at home or phone.

Device: Adherence Follow-Up

Interventions

With MI, the key goal is to empower the patient to commit to follow CPAP therapy, while providing empathic support, in a positive atmosphere, and without prejudice. The nurse does not directly advocate for behavior change (i.e. use CPAP as prescribed), but asks key questions to help the patient explore their feelings about the change, weighs the pros and cons of such change, and allows the patient to realize the discrepancy between the current risk (that is, not using CPAP as directed) and the benefits with good adherence.

PIMA Group

The nurse takes the compliance of the CPAP device, and ask to the patient if he had some problems.
