Comparing two ways to adjust Inspire therapy settings
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial compares two methods of adjusting the Inspire device settings for sleep apnea. One method uses an overnight sleep study, the other a daytime study. The goal is to see if the daytime method works just as well.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
- You have an implanted Inspire hypoglossal nerve stimulation device.
- You had a sleep study (PSG) at Antwerp University Hospital, either overnight or during the day.
- You can understand the language of the questionnaires (usually Dutch or English).
- You are willing to give informed consent.

Similar studies
Other trials that look related to this one.
This study is tracking how well a nerve stimulation device works for people with obstructive sleep apnea who can't use a CPAP machine. The device, called Inspire, sends mild electrical pulses to help keep your airway open while you sleep.
This trial checks how well hypoglossal nerve stimulation therapy keeps your airway open while you are sedated. It may help people already using this therapy understand if it is working.
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.
This trial tests whether combining electrical stimulation (via an Inspire device you already have or will get) with two medications can better treat obstructive sleep apnea. You'll help researchers understand if this combination works better than the device alone.
This study looks at how well current and new devices can diagnose obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). You may help researchers find more accurate and easier ways to detect breathing problems during sleep.
This study compares two ways to improve how CPAP therapy is delivered, to see which helps people use their machine more consistently. It is for adults who have been recently diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea and have not yet started treatment.
