If you have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), it probably also affects your sleep partner. OSA is frequently accompanied by snoring, which can keep your partner awake. And, you may frequently awaken with a loud snort or gasp if your airway has been obstructed, which can be jarring and disrupt a sound sleep for both of you.
In addition to the medical reasons for treatment, treating sleep apnea can lead to a better night's sleep for both you and your sleep partner. PROVENT® Sleep Apnea Therapy is designed to prevent airway obstruction while you sleep. The PROVENT Nasal Device is discreet and easy to use so you may feel more comfortable using it around your partner. In a clinical study of 34 subjects using PROVENT Therapy at home for 30 days, PROVENT Therapy was used all night on 94% of nights.1
