Treatment and study plan

Genio(TM) bilateral hypoglossal nerve stimulation system

Device

Subjects will be consented, enrolled and eligibility criteria checked. If the subject is eligible, subject will proceed with the Genio(TM) implant implantation. Four (4) weeks after implantation, the implant will be activated and the subject will be assessed at 1 month plus 1 week, 2, 3, 4 and 6 month(s) after implantation.

Primary outcomes

  1. Safety (Incidence of serious device-related adverse events)

    Time frame: 6-months post implantation

    Incidence of serious device-related adverse events

  2. Performance

    Time frame: 6-months post implantation

    Change from baseline to 6-month post implantation in the apnoea-hypopnea index (AHI)
