A new treatment for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome by electrical stimulation of submental region.

H Miki1, W Hida, H Inoue, T Takishima.   

Abstract

Loss of upper airway muscle tone during sleep has been thought to be responsible for obstructive apnea episodes. To examine the effect of electrical stimulation of the submental region on sleep apnea episodes, patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome were polysomnographically studied during all-night session with and without stimulation.
