Effort-based Decision-making and CPAP Adherence

Effort-based Decision-making as a Possible Predictor of Poor Adherence to CPAP Treatment in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

Obstructive sleep apnoea is the most common sleep disorder in general population, and is often associated with cognitive deficit, mood disorders, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, excessive daytime somnolence, nicturia and an increased cardiovascular and metabolic risk. The gold standard of treatment is Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), but the adherence is often poor. The aim of our study is to investigate the effort based-decision making in patients with OSA, pre and post CPAP treatment, as a possible cause of poor adherence.
