Thousand Oaks CA Novel Upper Airway Stimulation Device For Sleep Apnea Launched

Thousand Oaks,United States - June 2, 2022 /PressCable/

The launch of this new device provides affected individuals with the opportunity to remedy the condition with a device that works inside the body. In contrast to Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) devices, the Inspire therapy works in conjunction with the body’s natural breathing process.

With the creation of this therapeutic device, The Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center is offering a legitimate alternative to patients who can’t tolerate CPAP devices. The historical reliance on a single form of treatment has caused a large cohort of affected individuals to lose hope for an effective treatment. Eligible patients will be fitted with a device that works autonomously when the individual falls asleep.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a highly prevalent condition throughout the United States. Research published by the Sleep Foundation at the start of 2022 states that approximately 25 million Americans currently suffer from this condition. OSA leads to frequent pauses in breathing whilst asleep and occurs when the muscles in the back of the throat relax and cause the airway to become blocked. The condition can lead to the development of many unpleasant side effects, including chest pains, shortness of breath, and insomnia.

The Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center is run by Dr. Ronald Popper. Having founded the clinic back in 1984, Dr. Popper has gained certification in Sleep Disorder Medicine from the American Board of Sleep Medicine. Since then, Dr. Popper has become a speaker for the National Sleep Foundation whilst also writing and lecturing extensively on the topic of OSA.

Inspire Therapy works by delivering mild stimulation to the hypoglossal nerve, a nerve that controls the movement of the tongue and other muscles in the airway. By stimulating the nerve, the tongue and other tissues move out of the airway so that individuals can breathe whilst sleeping. Prior to the device being fitted, all patients are assessed by Dr. Popper to determine if the fitment of the Inspire Therapy device is viable.

The Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center is based in Thousand Oaks, California. Dr. Popper and the team are motivated to help individuals overcome sleep disorders and obtain a better quality of life.
