About Inspire Therapy
Untreated Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) can have devastating effects on heart and brain health, impair quality of life, and increase accident risk. Inspire Upper Airway Stimulation (UAS) therapy is an FDA-approved treatment for some people with moderate to severe OSA who are unable to tolerate or get relief from CPAP. In contrast to CPAP, Inspire therapy is implanted inside the body and works with a patient’s natural breathing process. Controlled by the patient sleep remote, the system includes a breathing sensor and a stimulation lead powered by a small battery. During sleep, the system senses breathing patterns and delivers mild stimulation to the tongue and other soft tissues of the throat to keep the airway open. Inspire therapy is currently available at more than 60 leading medical centers across the United States and Europe.
