Abstract
The tissue anchor failure rate of the tested device precludes its clinical use; however, the study results support that a titratable, tongue-suspension device with low direct surgical morbidity in patients with moderate-to-severe sleep apnea significantly improves multiple measures of sleep apnea. Further investigation is warranted.
