Digital therapy for sleep apnea with tongue and face exercises
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a digital therapy program that uses tongue and face exercises to help with sleep apnea. It's designed for people who have mild to moderate sleep apnea but cannot or do not want to use a CPAP machine or mouthpiece.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether exercises for the mouth, tongue, and throat muscles can help children aged 6-12 with obstructive sleep apnea breathe better during sleep. It is an alternative or addition to other treatments like surgery or breathing machines.
This study tests whether simple exercises for the mouth, tongue, and face can help children with mild sleep apnea breathe better during sleep. It's a non-surgical, drug-free approach that may be a good option for kids who haven't tried other treatments.
This study tests a therapy that strengthens mouth and tongue muscles to help children with Down or Prader-Willi syndrome who have mild obstructive sleep apnea. It aims to improve breathing during sleep without surgery or machines.
This trial tests a custom mouthpiece to treat mild or moderate sleep apnea by moving your jaw forward during sleep. It may help you breathe better and sleep more restfully without a bulky machine.
This trial tests how changing the frequency of gentle electrical pulses to a tongue muscle affects its activity. It may help people with sleep apnea by strengthening the muscle that keeps the airway open during sleep.
This study tests simple, low-tech treatments (like exercises) for sleep apnea. It's for people who are newly diagnosed or whose current treatment isn't working, and who are willing to pause their usual treatment for 3 months.
