ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new way to help people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) who also have Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). The researchers want to see if using a mobile health platform called "My OSA Coach" can improve self-management of these conditions. Participants will be randomly divided into two groups: one group will use the mobile health tool for six months, while the other group will not receive this intervention.

To be eligible for this study, participants must be over 20 years old, have a confirmed diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes, and have a body mass index (BMI) above 24 or a waist measurement that is larger than 90 cm for men or 80 cm for women. They must also have a specific level of sleep apnea confirmed by a sleep specialist. Participants should be comfortable using digital technology, as the study relies on mobile health tools. However, individuals with serious health issues like cancer or severe heart and lung diseases will not be able to participate. This trial is not yet recruiting, but it aims to help improve the lives of those dealing with both diabetes and sleep apnea.
