Brief Summary: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and insomnia often occur in the same patient. Recent studies have demonstrated the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT-I) in patients with insomnia and OSA. Our aim is to verify the efficacy of web based CBT-I in patients with OSA and insomnia and the effect of web based CBT-I on the acceptance and adherence to CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) therapy.
Detailed Description: Obstructive sleep apnea is one of the most common sleep disorders with high prevalence in males sex, is often associated with insomnia. The presence of both sleep disorders generates a vicious circle that exacerbates the clinical picture, makes difficult to accept and adhere to CPAP therapy and increase cardiovascular risk. CBT-I is considered the best treatment for insomnia and recent research has demonstrated the efficacy of CBT-I also when insomnia is associated with OSA. After six month of treatment we will test the efficacy of web-based CBT-I in patients with OSA and insomnia in comparison to one session of psycho education on sleep, OSA, insomnia, the interaction among them and the influence on CPAP adherence.
