Ventus Medical has announced the introduction of its proprietary Provent Sleep Apnea Therapy into Canada. Provent Therapy is an innovative, non-invasive treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. This is a scientifically validated and user-friendly approach that uses nasal expiratory positive airway pressure to keep a patient’s airway open during sleep. Over 1 in 4 Canadian adults are at high risk of obstructive sleep apnea. Continuous positive airway pressure is the primary treatment, but not all patients can tolerate it as a long term treatment. Provent Therapy improved quality of sleep while reducing sleep apnea, daytime sleepiness and snoring in clinical studies in the US. It is easy to use, portable and discreet for use at home or when travelling.
