Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Rate of response to therapy when compared to no therapy for 6 months

    The primary efficacy endpoint is to demonstrate that the AHI responder rate of subjects with the device stimulation activated (Active Group) is statistically significantly higher than the AHI responder rate of subjects with the device stimulation not activated (Control Group) at M7.

    Month 1 through Month 7

  • Rate of all serious adverse device/procedure related events from time of implant through month 7

    The primary safety endpoint is a descriptive evaluation of all reported serious adverse device/procedure related events (SADEs) through M7 for both groups. Relationship to procedure, device and study will be adjudicated by a Clinical Events Committee (CEC).

    Month 1 through Month 7

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Decrease in Oxygen Desaturation Index (Efficacy)

    Baseline through Month 7

  • Change in Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire (Efficacy

    Baseline through Month 7

  • Change in Epworth Sleepiness Scale (Efficacy)

    Baseline through Month 7

  • Change in EQ-5D (Efficacy)

    Baseline through Month 7

  • Change in PROMIS SDI/SRI (Efficacy)

    Baseline through Month 7

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)
