Hi neversleeps,

Thanks for the post! It's so good to know that Apniacs are are getting serious medical research attention.

The one concern I have relates to politics and of course, money. The major xPAP manufacturers will not be happy with this sort of thing especially if they do not have a stake in it. Looks like a totally different kind of therapy and if it's once and done there will be a lot of people out of bucks and jobs. Stay tuned for no further announcements in this area if you will.

Hey chris, any room for unemployed DME's in your area?
