Device-assisted mouth and throat exercises for sleep apnea patients on CPAP
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a device that helps with exercises for the mouth and throat in people with obstructive sleep apnea who are already using a CPAP machine. The goal is to see if these exercises can improve sleep apnea symptoms.
