Home Sleep Endoscopy: Evaluating the Feasiblity of a Remote Diagnostic Tool

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects nearly one billion people worldwide. Natural sleep endoscopy (NSE) is the ideal standard for evaluating airway collapse under physiological sleep but has been unfeasible due to practical limitations. This study evaluates the feasibility of home-based sleep endoscopy during natural sleep using a novel endoscope system.
