Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018132646A1] An embodiment of a system for treating sleep apnea includes a collar, a pump, a motor, a sensor, a memory mechanism, and a controller. The collar is configured to maintain an airway of a subject open while the subject is sleeping by applying, to a throat of the subject, a negative pressure having a magnitude, and the pump is configured to generate the negative pressure. The motor is configured to drive the pump, and the sensor is configured to generate a sense signal that is related to a degree to which the airway is open. And the controller is configured to vary the magnitude of the negative pressure in response to the sense signal. Furthermore, the controller can obtain and store, in the memory, information related to usage and settings of the sleep apnea system, and the controller, or another computing system, can correlate this information with the subject's wellbeing, and can recommend changes in the usage or the settings of the sleep-apnea system that can improve the subject's wellbeing.
