Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a condition characterized by recurring episodes of partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway during sleep. More than 930 million adults worldwide, aged 30 to 69, suffer from obstructive sleep apnea. However, most of them are not aware of this.
Untreated obstructive sleep apnea is associated with many negative health consequences and significantly increases the risk of stroke or heart failure over time.
The primary treatment for OSA is positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy. PAP or CPAP therapy involves the use of pressurized air that is pumped through a bedside machine and blown into into the patient's nose and/or mouth to keep the airway open during sleep.
But compliance with this kind of treatment is problematic. Some patients may feel uncomfortable sleeping with a cumbersome mask or worry about certain side effects of CPAP. As a result, they drop out of treatment.
That's why Nyxoah has developed Genio, an alternative treatment for all those who can't tolerate CPAP therapy, so they can continue to treat their sleep apnea and finally enjoy restful nights, as well as their bed partners.
Genio is a game changer for all those who can't tolerate CPAP therapy.
No need to sleep with a mask anymore!
Genio uses hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS) to prevent your tongue from falling back and blocking your upper airway while you sleep.
The effectiveness of this therapy has been scientifically proven in patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea.
