Anxiety and Depression In Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Before and After Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (ADIPOSA)

September 14, 2020 updated by: Almudena Carneiro Barrera, Universidad de Granada

Anxiety and Depression In Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Before and After Continuous Positive Airway Pressure: the ADIPOSA Study

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the gold-standard treatment for obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), the most common sleep-disordered breathing in the overall population. CPAP has shown to be effective in reducing apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) as well as other OSA polysomnographic outcomes. However, the effectiveness of this device on OSA daily functioning and mood disturbances outcomes still remains unclear. The ADIPOSA study is aimed at determining the effects of three-month CPAP use on anxiety-depression symptoms in patients with OSA. Participants will be adults previously diagnosed with OSA who will be allocated to a CPAP-treatment group. Outcomes will be measured at baseline and intervention end-point (three months) including daytime sleepiness, daily functioning and mood (anxiety and depression symptoms), AHI, other neurophysical and cardiorespiratory polysomnographic outcomes, and body weight. ADIPOSA may serve to establish the effectiveness of CPAP on daytime functioning and mood disturbances commonly found on patients with OSA and, in turn, on other OSA outcomes related to anxiety-depression symptoms.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in anxiety symptoms measured by State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)
Time Frame: Three months
Changes in state anxiety and trait anxiety components measured by STAI questionnaire after three-month CPAP usage
Three months
Change in depression symptoms measured by Beck's Depression Inventory-Fast Screen (BDI-FS)
Time Frame: Three months
Changes in depression symptoms measured by BDI-FS questionnaire after three-month CPAP usage
Three months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) from baseline to post-intervention
Time Frame: Three months
Change in apnoea (airflow reduction greater than or equal to 90%) and hypopnoea (airflow reduction greater than or equal to 30%) episodes per hour of sleep, from baseline to post-intervention.
Three months
Change in oxygen desaturation index (ODI) from baseline to post-intervention.
Time Frame: Three months
Change in the number of oxygen desaturations greater than or equal to 4%/h from baseline to post-intervention.
Three months
Change in excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) from baseline to post-intervention
Time Frame: Three months
Change in the difficulty in maintaining a desired level of wakefulness, measured by the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) from baseline to post-intervention. ESS is a 4-point scale (0 = no chance of dozing, 1 = slight chance of dozing, 2 = moderate chance of dozing, 3 = high chance of dozing) that measures the usual chances of dozing off or falling asleep while engaged in eight different activities. An ESS total score from 0 to 9 is considered to be normal while an ESS total score > 9 indicates high daytime sleepiness.
Three months
Change in body mass index (BMI)
Time Frame: Three months
Change in body mass index from baseline to post-intervention
Three months
