Summary
This study looked at whether a special camera test done during sleep (called drug-induced sleep endoscopy) can help doctors choose the right non-CPAP treatment for people with obstructive sleep apnea. 35 adults who could not use CPAP took part. The goal was to see if this approach improves breathing during sleep after 3 months.
