Sleep apnoea—most commonly obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA)—is a potentially serious sleep disorder where the patient repeatedly starts and stops breathing intermittently while asleep. A noticeable sign of OSA is snoring and waking up gasping for air. This is due to the muscles at the back of the throat relaxing too much, such that the airway narrows or closes entirely. With regular snoring, however, it is simply the result of tissues in the throat relaxing enough such that they partially block the airway and vibrate, causing a sound.

- Noise & Inconvenience: Disrupts your partner’s sleep
- Progression: It may progress into chronic snoring
- Reduced Oxygen Levels: When your airways are unable to inhale properly
- Heart Strain: As the heart has to pump harder and faster to supply oxygen-rich blood
- Daytime Fatigue: Repeatedly waking up at night to breathe worsens sleep quality
- Noise & Inconvenience: Disrupts your sleep and your partner's sleep

for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea
When you breathe better, you sleep better.
FDA-approved, Inspire Sleep Therapy uses nerve stimulation to address the root cause of sleep apnoea. The Inspire Sleep
implant keeps your airway open by delivering gentle pulses of mild stimulation to allow oxygen to flow naturally for
uninterrupted breathing during sleep.
