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.', 'detailedDescription': 'Obstructive sleep apnea is a very common disease in general population (24% males; 9% females), characterized by frequent partial or total upper-airway collapse, intermittent hypoxia, arousal from sleep, change in blood pressure, excessive daytime sleepiness, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, psychological and cognitive consequences. The gold standard treatment is Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), but the adherence is often poor. Poor therapy adherence might be partially explained by executive deficits, decreasing the ability to plan and pursue longsighted behaviors entailing immediate costs/efforts. We investigate the cognitive function, in particular effort based-decision making and the relationship with excessive daytime somnolence and other cognitive function in a group of OSA patients and in control group. We assess cognitive function in OSA patients at the diagnosis moment and after six months of CPAP use.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '80 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age ≥ 18\n* AHI±15\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* BMI ≥ 35 Kg/m2\n* MMSE \\<24\n* Complex sleep apnoea\n* Sleep disorder\n* Psychiatric disorder'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04557293', 'briefTitle': 'Effort-based Decision-making and CPAP Adherence', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Istituti Clinici Scientifici Maugeri SpA'}, 'officialTitle': 'Effort-based Decision-making as a Possible Predictor of Poor Adherence to CPAP Treatment in Obstructive Sleep Apnea', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '2425'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'CPAP Treatment', 'description': 'Patients with OSA will undergo cognitive assessment before starting CPAP treatment and after six months of CPAP use.', 'interventionNames': ['Device: Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) treatment']}, {'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'Control Group', 'description': 'We will enrol a control group of subjects without sleep disorders and comparable to OSA patients for age and schooling.
