Closed-loop neural stimulation for sleep apnea treatment

Abstract

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for closed-loop neural stimulation to treat sleep apnea. A comprehensive monitoring system continuously tracks multiple physiological parameters to detect sleep states and apnea events. Based on this real-time data, a control module dynamically adjusts neural stimulation parameters delivered through a flexible electrode array system. The system supports multiple stimulation modes including single-pair amplitude-modulated stimulation and multi-pair configurations, allowing patient-specific optimization while minimizing discomfort.
