Health campaigns hold promise for promoting general awareness about obstructive sleep apnea. In 2023, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine developed a series of messages as part of their “Count on Sleep” campaign. Three distinct messaging strategies were employed in posts disseminated on Facebook: (1) positive outcome (benefits of obstructive sleep apnea treatment); (2) negative outcome (consequences of untreated obstructive sleep apnea); and (3) partner-focused. We evaluated Facebook analytics to explore which of the 3 strategies was most impactful. The impressions were highest for the positive outcome message (n = 120,062), followed by the negative outcome (n = 12,286) and partner-focused (n = 10,259) messages. Female users were more likely to engage with positive (39% vs 28%) and negative (34% vs 25%) message than males, but sexes were quite balanced in engagement with the partner-focused message (36% vs 36%). There was more engagement from older adults (65 years and older) than from younger adults across all message types.
