Sponsor's own description
This study evaluates treatment effect of Cervical Collar (CC) in moderate obstructive sleep apnea.The investigators believe that stabilization of the neck by using a CC during sleep helps sustain airway patency. This would mean preventing collapse of airways during sleep. The study is a randomized, open, parallel-group intervention study. The two treatment groups are: A. Patients with moderate OSA are treated with lifestyle advice (n = 50) B. Patients with moderate OSA are treated with CC and lifestyle advice (n = 50).
