Application of WeChat mini-program in improving treatment compliance and outcome of patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome receiving continuous positive airway pressure
Objective:To investigate whether the mobile management platform based on WeChat mini-program can improve the out-come and compliance of patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS)receiving continuous positive airway pres-sure(CPAP)treatment.Methods:A total of 68 patients who were diagnosed with moderate to severe OSAHS and received CPAP treat-ment in Chongqing General Hospital from June to December 2022 were enrolled as subjects and were divided into WeChat mini-program management group with 36 patients and traditional outpatient follow-up group with 32 patients.The patients were assessed in terms of the efficacy of CPAP treatment,compliance with CPAP treatment,adverse reactions of CPAP treatment,and subjective sleep quality at 3 and 6 months.Results:Compared with the traditional outpatient follow-up group,the WeChat mini-program management group had significantly lower apnea-hypopnea index(AHI)and Epworth Somnolence Scale(ESS)score at 3 months after treatment(P＜0.05),while there were no significant differences in AHI and ESS score between the two groups at 6 months after treatment(P＞0.05).Compared with the traditional outpatient follow-up group,the WeChat mini-program management group had a significantly longer time of using CPAP per night and a significantly higher number of days of using CPAP per month at 3 and 6 months after treatment(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The OSAHS mobile management platform based on WeChat mini-program can effectively improve the treat-ment compliance and short-term outcome of patients with OSAHS receiving CPAP treatment.
