aveoTSD, Treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Disruptive Snoring
December 21, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Health News
An estimated 12 million Americans suffer from Obstructive Sleep Apnea yet 95% percent remain undiagnosed and untreated. 27 million snore to the extent they disrupt partners sleep. The health and social effects have only recently been considered, but now OSA is in the top 20 conditions diagnosed and treated by family doctors, sleep clinics and specialists.A problem arises in the cost and wait times associated with diagnosis. An overnight sleep test, which determines apnea events (stopping breathing), is currently required to effectively diagnose any form of sleep apnea. These costs are often not met through insurance, and public facilities are often unavailable, or have a wait time of months - even years.
Snoring itself is also an issue, it can also be the first sign of OSA. Loud, consistent, disruptive snorers do not get restorative sleep, can suffer from hypertension and have been found to have similar symptoms to OSA patients - daytime fatigue, poor concentration and reduced energy.
The aveoTSD is a 1st line treatment for snoring. It is a simple, innovative device that uses gentle suction on the tongue to bring it forward during sleep. The tongue falling back, and blocking or restricting the airway, is the primary cause for snoring and OSA.
The aveoTSD is proving to have a high efficacy and compliance rate with patients. The cost of the aveoTSD is far less than other therapies, such as surgery, CPAP, and fitted dental appliances.
“I have found the AveoTSD to be an effective and easy to use device. It is actually quite comfortable to wear once you become accustomed to it. I wear it all the time now.”
Dr David Christie, DDS, Victoria, Canada
Snorers who are concerned about their health, and partners sleep wellness should consider the aveoTSD as a primary treatment.
The aveoTSD is approved by the FDA and Health Canada as an anti-snoring device.
