Sleeping Position Modification Devices |
|
In some patients, obstructive sleep apnea is related to sleeping on one's back. Positional therapy for the treatment of OSA has been studied. According to some researchers the prevalence of positional OSA is between 55 and 60%. Several devices, including the BuzzPOD and Rematee Bumper Belt, have been developed to encourage the patient to sleep on his/her side rather than back.
Snoring can be often reduced by position modification. How often have you heard (or said) "roll over, you're snoring"!
