Brandon Nokes, Professor Atul Malhotra, and other collaborators, is based on a post-hoc analysis of 65 participants with mild obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who completed sleep testing before and after six weeks of genioglossus (tongue muscle) neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) with eXciteOSA. The first of its kind, eXciteOSA is an FDA-authorized, non-invasive daytime ...
” OSA is a progressive disease, often starting with primary snoring, affecting nearly 1 billion adults aged 30 to 69 globally.1 Used for only 20 minutes per day during the initiation period, and then twice per week thereafter for maintenance, eXciteOSA targets a primary root cause of mild OSA by delivering neuromuscular electric stimulation to increase tongue muscle ...
It works by applying neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on the genioglossus muscle – the major muscle that forms the tongue mass. NMES creates contractions of the tongue muscle, enhancing function and endurance so that after 6 weeks of therapy, the tongue stays in an ideal position for optimal airflow. ...
