No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Standard therapy in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). 30% to 50% are not adherent to this therapy and need an alternative treatment. Hypoglossal nerve stimulation or selective upper airway stimulation has been developed since several years. The aim of this clinical trial is to compare both treatments with each other.
