New nerve zap test could unlock better sleep apnea treatment

NCT ID NCT05501236

Summary

This study is exploring a new way to treat obstructive sleep apnea by stimulating nerves in the neck. Researchers will test if activating these neck muscles, alone or combined with tongue nerve stimulation, helps keep the airway open during sleep. The goal is to gather detailed information on how this approach works to potentially improve future treatments for people who struggle with current options.
