Sponsor's own description
Upper airway stimulation (UAS) is an effective surgical alternative for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who fail continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. This stimulation could lead to alterations in tongue strength and fatigability which could alter treatment outcome. The aim of the study is to investigate if UAS alters tongue strength and fatigability.
