Phase 2 — Testing in a bigger group (up to a few hundred people) to see if the treatment actually works and is still safe.
This trial is testing a program called Nuestro Sueño that brings sleep apnea patients and their partners together to improve treatment use and sleep quality. Sleep apnea is a common condition among Latino adults that increases the risk of memory loss and cognitive decline. This study believes that when couples work together on sleep health, both partners benefit — the person with sleep apnea gets better treatment support, and their partner gets better sleep too.
Many people with sleep apnea stop using their prescribed treatment within months, which means they miss out on its protective benefits for brain health. Existing support programs focus only on the individual patient and weren't designed with Latino cultures in mind. This trial exists to create a couples-based approach that respects cultural values and involves both partners in improving sleep health.
If you join this study, you and your partner will be assigned to either receive the Nuestro Sueño program or an information packet about sleep apnea. In the active program, you'll attend 3 telehealth sessions with a community health worker who will help you and your partner improve communication, sleep quality, and consistent use of your sleep apnea treatment. Sessions are delivered in your preferred language and focus on what works best for Latino couples.
