First seen Jan 14, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 16 times

Summary

This study looks at how a device that stimulates a nerve in the tongue changes airway collapse during sleep in people with obstructive sleep apnea. About 21 adults who already use this therapy will have a special sleep endoscopy to measure airway collapsibility. The goal is to better understand how the treatment works, which could help doctors tailor therapy to each patient in the future.
