Brief summary

This study intends to investigate the personality and psychological characteristics of OSA patients using classical standard scales and obtain treatment information and adherence data through prospective follow-up to summarize the distribution characteristics of mood and personality characteristics of OSA patients and their influence on treatment adherence. A thorough understanding of OSA patient characteristics from the perspective of personality and psychological characteristics will be of great significance to the classification of OSA patients, precision treatment, and improving treatment compliance.

Detailed description

Through the personality, mood, and sleep questionnaires of patients with suspected OSA and planned sleep monitoring, the differences in personality and treatment choices of the OSA population with different personality characteristics and emotional states through follow-up. 2. The above investigation and follow-up of patients in the hospital for ventilator pressure treatment were used to observe the effect of differences in personality characteristics and mood status on ventilator treatment acceptance, stress, and compliance indicators.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ)At baselineThis study adopted the classic short form of the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire - Revised (EPQ-R Short Scale) to assess individual personality traits across four dimensions: Psychoticism (P), Extraversion (E), Neuroticism (N), and Lie Scale (L). Each dimension consists of 12 items, with scores ranging from 0 to 12. Higher scores indicate a stronger presence of the corresponding trait. For example, a higher score on Neuroticism reflects greater emotional instability, while a higher score on Extraversion suggests a more outgoing and active personality

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) complianceFrom CPAP initiation to the 3-month follow-updownloading the data from the CPAP to assess average daily usage duration (in hours) and the number of days used per week. Good adherence is typically defined as using the CPAP device for at least 4 hours per night on 70% or more nights over the past 3 consecutive months.
