What this Trial Is About
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the culturally adapted couples sleep health intervention (Nuestro Sueno) improves positive airway pressure use and sleep among Hispanic couples in which one partner was diagnosed with sleep apnea and starting positive airway pressure treatment. The main questions are: 1. Does Nuestro sueno improve the patient's positive airway pressure use over the first 3 months of using it compared to an information control? 2. Does Nuestro sueno improve sleep quality for both the patient and partner, compared to an information control? 3. Does Nuestro sueno improve other aspects of life including quality of life and memory, compared to an information control?
