For patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea who haven’t found relief with CPAP, Inspire offers an innovative, implantable treatment option. At Pulmonary Obesity & Sleep Specialists of Houston, we proudly evaluate and refer eligible patients for Inspire therapy—a groundbreaking, FDA-approved solution that works with your body’s natural breathing patterns to keep your airway open.
Inspire therapy involves a small device implanted under the skin in the chest area, connected to a breathing sensor and a stimulation lead placed on the hypoglossal nerve. This nerve controls tongue movement. When activated during sleep, Inspire sends gentle pulses to stimulate the tongue forward, preventing airway collapse and promoting uninterrupted breathing.
One of the key advantages of Inspire is its user-friendly design: it’s activated each night with a small handheld remote. There’s no mask, no hoses, and no noise—just quiet, natural breathing. Studies show high patient satisfaction and long-term compliance, making it a valuable option for those who are CPAP-intolerant.
Our team works closely with local ENT surgeons and specialists to assess candidacy, coordinate the procedure, and support patients throughout the process. If you’ve struggled with other therapies or want a more permanent solution, Inspire may be the answer you’ve been waiting for.
