Study Summary

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common problem among middle-aged and older Veterans that is associated with poor nighttime sleep, more daytime sleepiness, poor functioning and worse quality of life. The recommended therapy for most patients with OSA is positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy; however, over time many patients prescribed PAP therapy no longer use it regularly. This study will test the effects of an behavioral treatment specifically designed for middle-aged and older Veterans who have stopped using their PAP device, or are not using it regularly. Eligible Veterans who are enrolled into the study will receive a baseline assessment that includes questionnaires about sleep, health, and quality of life. After completing the baseline assessment, participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Both groups will meet individually with a "sleep coach" for 5 session over 8 weeks, then they will be contacted by the sleep coach monthly by telephone for up to 6 months. Participants will complete follow-up assessments immediately after the fifth education session and again at 6-months and 12-months. If successful, this approach has the potential to improve sleep, function and quality of life in middle-aged and older Veterans with OSA.
