How Inspire therapy works:
Inspire therapy is the only FDA-approved obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) therapy that works comfortably inside your body. The small Inspire® implant delivers gentle pulses to your airway muscles to keep your airway open so you can breathe regularly and sleep soundly.
- When we sleep, our airway muscles and tongue relax. For people with OSA, the tongue relaxes into a position that blocks the airway.
- When your airway is blocked, you get less oxygen to your brain, triggering you to wake up and take a breath. This cycle happens repeatedly, preventing quality sleep.
- The Inspire implant delivers gentle pulses that move your tongue out of the way each time you breathe, keeping your airway open while you sleep soundly. No mask or hose is required.
Is Inspire right for you?
You may qualify for Inspire if you meet the following criteria:
- Over the age of 19
- Diagnosed with moderate to severe OSA
- Unable to get consistent benefits from CPAP
- Not significantly overweight
