seeking individuals with moderate-to-severe sleep apnea
I'm trying to better understand hypoglossal nerve stimulation to treat OSA and want to know your perceptions on the treatment and thoughts on the technology. For those interested in participating in a written (or can be via telephone) survey, please let me know. I'm looking for those who have moderate-to-severe OSA and do not receive benefit or cannot tolerate CPAP. For those who qualify and who complete the survey, happy to offer a $25 gift certificate to your favorite restaurant (as long as can order online)! All information to be confidential and used just for this research.
You can reach me at jeremycharlton@outlook.com.
Best,
JC

Re: seeking moderate-to-severe sleep apnea
We're a bit careful here as to which survey by whom we respond to, so some explanation would help.

Re: seeking moderate-to-severe sleep apnea
I'm trying to figure out why one would seek moderate-to-severe sleep apnea.... usually it finds you when you don't want it

Re: seeking moderate-to-severe sleep apnea
I read it that way, too, Pale Rider. I'd be happy to give them mine.

Re: seeking individuals with moderate-to-severe sleep apnea
Hi - thanks for your comments everyone (and the catch in the title which I've corrected .
I'm conducting research into the field of neuromodulation (using implantable devices based on mild electrical stimulation) and trying to evaluate the need for neurostimulation to help those with moderate-to-severe OSA who do not benefit from or cannot tolerate CPAP. This research will be used to see if this organization should consider this area of medicine or not.
Thank you for your time & consideration.
Sincerely
JC

Re: seeking moderate-to-severe sleep apnea
Your idea is already being carried out, if mostly on an experimental basis - are you not aware of it or is your idea different?

Re: seeking individuals with moderate-to-severe sleep apnea
Since you are asking for input from obstructive apnea people and not people with central apnea, I assume you talking about something like the Inspire implant where the muscles are stimulated.jeremycharlton wrote:Hi - thanks for your comments everyone (and the catch in the title which I've corrected .

You need to edit the title line in the original post. Otherwise, it continues to show up in the index with the original title.jeremycharlton wrote:the catch in the title which I've corrected
Are you aware that roughly 50% of people who are prescribed CPAP fail with it?jeremycharlton wrote:who do not benefit from or cannot tolerate CPAP

Jeez! Julie, you would have told Soichiro Honda not to start making cars because Henry Ford was already carrying out that idea.Julie wrote:Your idea is already being carried out
Re: seeking moderate-to-severe sleep apnea
First car was a Ford, now I drive a Honda, if it's any of your business.
