发明名称 DEVICE FOR TREATING SNORING SOUNDS, INTERRUPTIONS IN BREATHING AND OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA
摘要 The invention relates to a device (1) for treating snoring sounds, interruptions in breathing and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and for diagnosing and treating obstruction and vibrations in the pharyngeal region. To this end, the device (1) is intraorally used. The device (1) is comprised of at least one oral transverse (2a, 2b) and of means (3), which are placed at the rear end of the oral transverse (2a, 2b) and which serve to stabilize the velum. The means (3) can be individually adapted to the anatomy of the patient. During intraoral use of the device (1), the velum is held at a distance from the pharyngeal wall, and the connective tissue in the upper pharynx behind the velum is stabilized in order to prevent obstructions. Different means can advantageously supplement the device and serve as a holding device for sensors for examining and treatment purposes. The invention also relates to a method for adapting a device (1) according to one of the cited claims to the velum of a patient and to a method for recording measured values.
