Official title
Prospective Use of Awake Endoscopy to Direct Inspire Therapy for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The aim of this study is to examine a new method of device configuration for the Inspire upper airway stimulator. First, the investigators will attempt to determine optimal configuration by quantifying changes in upper airway size with different implant configurations using awake nasal endoscopy. The configuration/voltage that results in the greatest increase in upper airway size and is tolerated by the patient will be selected. Participants will then undergo a sleep study so that increased airway size may be correlated with changes in sleep study parameters including AHI and oxygen desaturation index (ODI). Airway size and sleep study parameters using the standard device configuration (+-+)/voltage will be compared to airway size and sleep study parameters using the test, or "optimal," configuration/voltage to determine the usefulness of awake endoscopy in activation of the Inspire device.
