Study of a new device for severe sleep apnea
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests if a new device can help people with severe sleep-disordered breathing (like sleep apnea). It may be an option if you have no or well-managed heart failure and are able to follow study procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have no history of severe lung disease or pulmonary hypertension
- You have not had a nerve injury or palsy, and no cervical spine surgery or head radiation

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new device that uses gentle electrical stimulation to improve breathing during sleep. It is for people who have moderate to severe sleep-disordered breathing and cannot use or do not get enough help from other treatments like CPAP.
This trial tests a nerve stimulation device for people with moderate to severe sleep-disordered breathing who cannot use or tolerate standard treatments. It may help you breathe better during sleep.
This trial tests a new nerve-stimulation therapy called Neuromod to treat moderate-to-severe sleep apnea in people who do not have access to other treatments. If you qualify, you would be part of a study to see if this implant helps improve your breathing during sleep.
This trial tests a device that stimulates the upper airway during sleep to treat obstructive sleep apnea. It may help people with moderate to severe sleep apnea who have trouble using a CPAP machine.
This study tests a new device for sleep apnea that you can use instead of a CPAP machine. If you have moderate to severe sleep apnea and CPAP isn't working well for you, this study may help find an easier option.
This trial tests a nerve-stimulation implant for sleep apnea when other treatments haven't worked. It may help if you have moderate to severe apnea, a BMI under 32, and have tried CPAP and a mouth device without success.
