Testing a nerve therapy for Latin Americans with sleep apnea
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- Your recent sleep study shows an AHI score between 15 and 100 (moderate to severe sleep apnea).
- You do not currently use other treatments for sleep apnea like oral appliances or behavioral therapy.
- You do not have any implanted medical devices (like pacemakers or neurostimulators).
- Your BMI is under 40.

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 study tests a new proactive therapy for people recently diagnosed with moderate or severe sleep apnea. It aims to see how well patients stick with the treatment outside of a sleep lab.
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 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 trial tests a nerve stimulation treatment for obstructive sleep apnea in people who are overweight and cannot tolerate CPAP. It focuses on how the treatment affects metabolism and weight.
This trial tests a device that uses mild electrical pulses to help keep your airway open while you sleep. It's for people with moderate sleep apnea who have trouble using a CPAP machine.
