Sponsor's own description

OSA is a major chronic condition affecting the quality of life of millions of Americans. Per the Institute of Medicine new treatment adherence strategies are needed to help improve the quality of care, reduce social and economic costs, and help those with chronic conditions (such as OSA) live healthier and more productive lives through better management of their conditions. Using an mHealth tool to help deliver the investigators' Self-Management intervention and improve the frequency and quality of patient-provider communications is a central component of that discovery process.
