In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The study aims to introduce a motivational intervention for patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) starting CPAP therapy to improve sleep quality and treatment adherence. It will assess average daily CPAP use and compare subjective sleep quality, daytime sleepiness, disease perception, and quality of life between the intervention group and a control group receiving standard care. Inclusion criteria are adults with OSA capable of understanding Italian; exclusion criteria are minors and those already adapted to CPAP. The experimental group will receive a four-phase motivational intervention, while the control group will follow standard CPAP adaptation without additional support.
