Sleep apnea is a sleep breathing disorder that causes you to have interrupted breathing during sleep. This may cause you to sleep poorly, wake up without feeling refreshed, feel fatigued or tired during the day, experience headaches, or feel like you aren’t able to think clearly. Treatment for sleep apnea may help you feel better.

Sleep apnea is very common in patients with heart problems. In fact, it affects up half of patients with heart failure and/or atrial fibrillation.
Central sleep apnea is a form of sleep apnea that is less common and less studied than obstructive sleep apnea. This article explains the differences between central and obstructive sleep apnea, as well as the symptoms, causes, and treatment options for central sleep apnea.

The remedē® System is indicated for moderate to severe Central Sleep Apnea in adult patients.
Your doctor will need to evaluate your condition to determine if the remedē system is right for you. You will not be able to have an MRI or diathermy (special heat therapies) if you have the remedē system implanted. The remedē system may be used if you have another stimulation device such as a heart pacemaker or defibrillator; special testing will be needed to ensure the devices are not interacting.
As with any surgically implanted device, there are risks related to the surgical procedure itself which may include, but are not limited to, pain, swelling, and infection.
Once the therapy is turned on, some patients may experience discomfort from stimulation and/or from the presence of the device. The majority of these events are resolved either on their own or by adjusting the therapy settings. The remedē system may not work for everyone. There are additional risks associated with removing your system. If you and your doctor decide to remove the system, another surgery will be required.
Be sure to talk with your doctor so that you thoroughly understand all of the risks and benefits associated with the implantation of the remedē system. Rx only. For further information, please call +1-952-540-4470 or email info@respicardia.com.
