Background:
Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is a common, chronic sleep disease. As the incidence of OSAHS increases, it has seriously threatened people's health. There have been an increasing number of clinical trials of OSAHS in recent years. However, the clinical trials of OSAHS have heterogeneous outcomes, surrogate outcomes, subjective outcomes, and composite outcomes, as well as the lack of endpoints or patient perspectives. The best method is to develop a core outcomes sets (COSs) for OSAHS's clinical trials.
Methods:
The development of COSs of OSAHS will include 5 stages: RESULTS:: The results of our study will be published in a peer-reviewed journal.
Discussion:
The development of the COSs of OSAHS will improve the design and operation of OSAHS clinical trials to conform to international standards and ensure the credibility of the outcomes. In addition, this study will involve different stakeholder groups to help ensure that the developed COSs will be suitable and well accepted.
Trial Registration Number:
1544.

Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...
