Summary

This trial is testing the eXciteOSA device on patients with moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The device sends gentle electrical pulses to the tongue muscles to help keep the airway open during sleep. The study will compare the effects of using the device at two different doses over a period of time. The eXciteOSA device, developed by Signifier Medical Technologies Ltd., is used for daytime neuromuscular electrical training of tongue muscles to improve snoring and mild obstructive sleep apnea.
