Inspire (Outpatient Sleep Apnea Treatment)

Inspire is the only FDA Approved Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatment that treats the root cause of sleep apnea—with just the click of a button.

Inspire is a small device that keeps a patient’s airway open using a gentle pulse. It’s implanted in the body with 2 or 3 small incisions in a same-day, outpatient procedure. After the procedure, the patient will work with their doctor to fine-tune their inspire. Once it’s fine-tuned, the patient simply clicks the remote to turn on Inspire and goes down to sleep. While sleeping, Inspire monitors the patient’s breathing. Every time they take a breath, a gentle pulse moves the tongue out of the way, and keeps the patient breathing freely, and more importantly, sleeping soundly. The way they used to.
