Is Combination Therapy PAP and Implantable Stimulation at same time a thing?
#1
Is Combination Therapy PAP and Implantable Stimulation at same time a thing?
Is there anyone out there using an PAP AND an implanted stimulation device at the same time?  Is there any research out there to support this is positive (lower pressure need for severe apea) and safe?

I just had a sleep study and my current CPAP pressure 11 is very inadequate. I am moving to a variable pressure BiPAP (i think) but the study looked like pressure 17-19 is the new normal.

The idea of having the implanted device for naps/camping and the combo for regular sleep (lovely humidified air) is appealing to me but I don't know if it is science fiction.
