ProSomnus Poised to Support Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients Following Discontinuation of Philips Respironics OSA Devices
2024年1月29日 - 10:00PM
ProSomnus, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSA) (the “Company”), the leading non-CPAP
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) therapy™, announced that the company
is well-positioned to support patients with OSA and sleep
physicians who can no longer access discontinued OSA devices.
Earlier in January, Philips Respironics announced the
discontinuation of many devices used for the treatment and
diagnosis of sleep apnea, including CPAP systems. This
discontinuation follows several U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) mandated CPAP recalls over the past several years adversely
impacting an estimated 4 million patients.
ProSomnus precision intraoral devices have
demonstrated excellent efficacy, adherence, and patient preference
in numerous clinical studies, including a head-to-head cross over
study comparing the effectiveness of treatment with ProSomnus
devices versus CPAP devices. Further, ProSomnus is generally able
to connect sleep physicians with local providers who are in-network
with medical insurance, take Medicare and have demonstrated
excellent results and high levels of patient satisfaction.
“ProSomnus along with our qualified providers
are mobilized to facilitate access to high quality healthcare for
the millions of patients suffering from untreated Obstructive Sleep
Apnea,” commented Len Liptak, Chief Executive Officer of ProSomnus.
“Scientific data from over a dozen studies, including hundreds of
patients, establish ProSomnus devices as safe, effective, and
patient preferred. We stand ready to help sleep physicians and
their patients connect to qualified providers.”
“With this announcement by Philips Respironics,
I believe that the public in need of treatment for OSA is becoming
more disenfranchised,” stated Dr. Kent Smith, D-ABDSM, ASBA. “It is
past the time for the PAP community of healthcare providers to
partner with qualified Dental Sleep Medicine (DSM) providers to
facilitate a less restrictive avenue for treatment. We will hear of
stricter allocation of PAP units soon, and I believe it would
benefit the patients needing help to be provided with other
options. I hope that PAPs would be reserved for the most severe
population while those with less severe disease levels would be
offered Oral Appliance Therapy, which has been found to be very
effective in this subset of patients.”
“As a DSM Specialist, the recent news of Philips
Respironics exiting the U.S. sleep business represents a
significant shift in the landscape of sleep health solutions and
has important implications for both patients and healthcare
providers,” stated Dr. Stacey Layman, D-ABDSM, D-ABSA. “Philips has
been a prominent player in the sleep health industry, providing
innovative solutions for sleep apnea and other sleep disorders.
Their decision to withdraw from this market has led to a gap that
needs to be filled. DSM is an emerging field focusing on the
diagnosis and treatment of sleep-related breathing disorders
through dental interventions. This transition underscores the
significance of multi-disciplinary collaboration within sleep
medicine. DSM specialists can work in tandem with sleep physicians
and other healthcare providers to offer holistic, patient-centered
care for individuals suffering from sleep-related issues. Oral
Appliance Therapy has been demonstrated in clinical studies to be
highly effective in managing sleep disorders, offering patients a
non-invasive and comfortable alternative to traditional CPAP
therapy. I encourage patients and healthcare providers to explore
all treatment options for OSA.”
“ProSomnus qualified providers are already
working alongside sleep physicians in utilizing precision Oral
appliance Therapy (OAT) to treat OSA,” stated Dr. Mark T. Murphy,
DDS D-ABDSM. “We expect that this Philips discontinuation is likely
to create a supply chain issue with CPAP availability and affect
access to care. ProSomnus is positioned to provide patients timely
access to care with its clinically proven and patient preferred
precision appliances.”
We invite patients and sleep physicians to
contact ProSommus at Info@ProSomnus.com to learn more about
ProSomnus precision devices or to be introduced with a qualified
provider in their area.
