Benefit of adjunctive transoral neuromuscular electrical stimulation with positive airway pressure therapy: a case report. J Clin Sleep Med. 2023;19(11):1971-1974. doi:10.5664/jcsm.10720https://hdl.handle.net/1805/44852Combination positive airway pressure therapy and daytime transoral neuromuscular electrical stimulation in the treatment of sleep apnea has not been reported in the literature. We present a case of a patient with poorly controlled sleep apnea despite bilevel positive airway pressure. Adjunctive therapy with daytime neuromuscular electrical stimulation resulted in dramatic reduction of the apnea-hypopnea index with significant improvement in patient's symptoms.en-USPublisher PolicyNMESOSAPAPAdjunctive treatmentNeuromuscular electrical stimulationObstructive sleep apneaPositive airway pressureArticle
