Abstract
sUAS leads to significant reductions of AHI, ODI and ESS in older patients. Despite higher age and more co-morbidities, surgical implantation time was not affected. Older patients showed higher usage of sUAS. Advanced age seems not to be a limiting factor for treatment outcomes of sUAS, thus indication for this treatment can also be applied to older people.
