Abstract

The continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine is a long-time staple in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but not all patients can or want to use the pump-hose-and-mask apparatus. Innovators are responding with alternative neurostimulation devices to treat moderate to severe OSA.
