Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Didgeridoo practice has been shown to improve Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) severity. The aim of our study is to assess the changes in upper airways obstruction levels, evaluated by sleep endoscopy, before and after 3 months of Didgeridoo practice in moderate non obese OSA patients. Severity of OSA will also be documented by polysomnography.
