Conditions
Brief summary
ARCTIC-1 is a safety and dosing study to evaluate procedure tolerability in patients with clinically diagnosed moderate or severe OSA.
Detailed description
The study is a safety and dose titration study to determine the optimum dose of Cryosa CHILLS cryotherapy in patients with clinically diagnosed moderate or severe OSA. Up to 70 subjects are planned to be enrolled and treated with the device at up to 3 clinical sites in Latin America. Subjects will be followed for 90 days with evaluation intervals at discharge, 7 days, 30 days and 90 days post-procedure.
