Assessing the Validity of the PAP Problems Triage Tool in Patients With PAP Treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (NCT05530967)

Assessing the Structure and Validity of the PAP Problems Triage Tool in Patients With Newly-Initiated PAP Treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿ“‹ Clinical Research Protocol Sponsor: Kaiser Permanente

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The intended use of the Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) Problems Triaging Tool (TT) is to appropriately triage patients with a PAP-associated problem(s) to a specific intervention(s) based on patient responses. Thus, the proposed research will validate the tool, determine optimal scoring thresholds, and explore the utility of the tool as an indicator for intervention. Our central hypothesis is that the PAP Problems TT will identify treatment barriers that if unaddressed, are predictive of treatment non-adherence.
