LivaNova - Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
Sleep Apnea Implant Therapy - A CPAP Alternative: LivaNova THN Sleep Therapy is an implantable therapy for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), a very serious condition that affects millions of patients worldwide and occurs when the muscles in your airway relax during sleep, causing your airway to narrow or close as you breath in depriving your brain of oxygen. This sleep apnea implant delivers therapy through neurostimulation technology and was specifically designed to deliver muscle tone to key tongue muscles, effectively controlling upper airway flow and significantly reducing or eliminating sleep apnea. THN Sleep Therapy is indicated for patients with moderate to severe OSA who are unable or unwilling to use continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy.
