An Interactive Mobile Care on Self-management Among T2DM with OSA
Sponsor: Chang Gung University of Science and Technology
Summary
The aim of the second and third year is to construct the "Care model of improving for overweight or obese T2DM with OSA" based on the transtheoretical model, and to import an interactive m-health self-management (m-Health My OSA Coach; MOSAC)" cloud platform to examine the effectiveness of OSA in T2DM participants. A randomized controlled trial study design will be adopted. Eligible OSA participants who have been screened for OSA following the first stage will be invited to the second stage. The participants will be randomly divided into either experimental or control group with 1:1 ratio. The total duration of intervention program is 6 months. Only the experimental group receives the MOSAC intervention.

Interventions
an interactive m-health self-management
Description: The experimental group will undergo a lifestyle intervention based on the Transtheoretical Model (TTM), utilizing the MOSAC cloud platform. This intervention focuses on self-management to facilitate behavior changes aimed at weight loss and improving Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) of T2DM patients. Key components include self-monitoring, tracking, real-time feedback, and customized weight loss plans, all enhanced by gamification features. The intervention emphasizes a healthy approach to weight loss, promoting a balanced diet, moderate calorie reduction, and increased physical activity, such as step counts. Each stage of the intervention outlines specific objectives, processes, and measures for achieving behavioral change and supporting healthy weight loss.
In the control group
Description: In the control group, standard medical care will continue to be provided along with written educational pamphlets on weight loss and sleep hygiene. The interactive m-health cloud platform will not be offered. However, the results of the three questionnaires administered to each participant will be individually explained, and any questions will be addressed immediately. After the activity concludes, participants may choose to receive the same intervention as the experimental group, if they wish.
