Bilateral Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation With the XII Medical HGNS System for the Treatment of Adult Obstructive Sleep Apnea Pilot Study
Summary
The goal of this interventional study is to assess the safety and performance of the XII Medical Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation (HGNS) System in people who have moderate to severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Participation in this study involves being implanted with a Neurostimulator which provides electrical stimulation of the hypoglossal nerve (HGN).
Why it matters
This trial represents an important advancement in neurotechnology for treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). If successful, the device-based intervention could provide a new therapeutic option for patients who have not responded adequately to conventional treatments or therapies. The study results may inform future regulatory approval pathways and establish clinical precedent that could benefit broader patient populations with similar conditions.
