| Purpose: |
|
Study to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of a new oral enhanced airway device to
treat simple snoring.
|
| Study summary: |
|
The Keepasleep airway device is a novel and unique buccopharyngeal airway device to enhance
breathing during sleep. This method has not been described in the medical literature and has
been successful in limited testing. This clinical trial is to determine the safety and
effectiveness of the KEEPASLEEP device utilizing 30 subjects with simple snoring. Each
subject will serve as his/her own control. The device augments airflow into the posterior
pharynx to minimize airway collapse,tissue vibration, and consequent snoring.The device
passes through the retromaxillary space and requires that the subject be absent their wisdom
teeth. |
