Official title
A Prospective, Open-label, Multicentric Extension Study to Assess the Long-term Safety of the Genio® System in Study Subjects Who Have Been Implanted With the Genio® Implantable Stimulator (IS) for the Treatment of OSA in Adult Patients.
Overview
The objective of this study is to assess the long-term safety of the Genio® system in adult OSA patients with and without complete concentric collapse of the soft palate who have successfully been implanted with the Genio IS in a Nyxoah sponsored Clinical Investigation. (Serious) Adverse Device Effects and Device Deficiencies in subjects previously implanted with a Nyxoah Genio implantable stimulator (IS) and having the IS still in-situ (with therapy activated or deactivated) will be collected. The main question it aims to answer is: what is the long term safety profile of the Genio System? Participants will be asked to refer back to the site per standard of care and report on any (Serious) Adverse Device Effects and Device Deficiencies that may have occurred.
Detailed description
The objective of this study is to assess the long-term safety of the Genio® system in adult OSA patients with and without complete concentric collapse of the soft palate who have successfully been implanted with the Genio IS in a Nyxoah sponsored Clinical Investigation.
All subjects that have previously participated in a Nyxoah sponsored clinical investigation in Australia, and who are currently still implanted with an implantable stimulator (with therapy activated or de-activated) will be asked to participate in this long-term safety follow-up study and will be asked to report any (Serious) Adverse Device Effects and Device Deficiencies that may have occurred.
Interventions
- Device Genio System
All participants have previously been implanted with a Genio® system implantable stimulator. This research is observational in nature (long term safety follow-up) and participants will not be exposed to additional procedures. The Genio System comprises of a bilateral Implantable Stimulator (IS), which is implanted via a minimally invasive surgery procedure and positioned over the genioglossus muscle with its electrodes positioned over both the left and right hypoglossal nerve branches. Stimulat
Primary outcome measures
- Long-term safety [Time frame: Yearly (until commercial availability of the device in Australia OR until no subjects remain implanted), anticipated average 5 years"]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
