Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this research study is to test a new approach for treating patients with obstructive sleep apnea and/or snoring. The new nasal device, nastent (NAS: nasal airway stent), appears to be a useful alternative or additive treatment.

Detailed Description

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

The nasal stent basically helps to splint the soft palate open. Subjects have a baseline (diagnostic) sleep study without wearing the device. Subjects are then fitted with the device and then subjects wear the device for at least 7 nights during their sleep while at home. Subjects then return for a repeat in-laboratory sleep study while wearing the device. The primary outcome is to assess the effectiveness of the device by change in the apnea-hypopnea index (number of sleep-related abnormal breathing events per hour of sleep) while wearing the device compared to baseline.

Nastent

A baseline sleep study is obtained from the subject, without wearing the device. The individual wears the device at home for at least 7 nights, and then returns to the sleep lab for an in-laboratory sleep study while wearing the device.
