AIO BREATHE MB for Obstructive Sleep Apnea and for Snoring.

AIO BREATHE is a light weight, small sized oral appliance (by prescription only) cleared by The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as first line treatment of moderate/mild OSA (AHI up to 30/hour) and for snoring without OSA in adults over 18 years of age. It is manufactured at AIOMEGA, LLC, a biotechnology company based in the USA. It is a wearable device (to be used by placing over the teeth) for use during sleep that can be removed in the morning.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a serious medical condition characterized by recurrent episodes of oxygen deprivation that occur over a lifetime during sleep and progressively worsens as a person ages. 

AIO Breathe Summary

AIO Breathe acts by increasing the patient’s airway during sleep, improving ability to exchange air, thereby reducing the tendency to snore and alleviating signs of obstructive sleep apnea.

AIO Breathe features right and left protrusive flanges that engage with corresponding right and left vertical flanges. This engagement repositions the jaw to reflect the dentist’s prescribed anterior mandibular advancement and is maintained while mouth is open or closed.

Additionally, mandibular plateaus guide the mandible downward, thus opening the anterior airway. The plateaus and flanges allow vertical opening of the jaw and work together to maintain advancement in open and closed mouth positions.

Indications for Use

AIO Breathe is intended for treatment of moderate/mild Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and snoring in adults.

Clinical Applications (How can a Sleep physician/Cardiologist/Dentist include AIO BREATHE and MB in overall strategy of OSA treatment)

1. First Line (Primary Indication): AIO BREATHE MB can be used as standalone therapy of OSA with AHI up to 30/hour of sleep.
2. First Line (Primary Indication): Primary Snoring and Upper airway resistance syndrome (CPAP not indicated). Standalone therapy for snoring or daytime symptoms like fatigue, sleepiness etc. with AHI less than 5/hour of sleep.
3. Replacement therapy: Patient is intolerant to CPAP/BIPAP irrespective of AHI.
4. Combination therapy with CPAP/BIPAP: AIO BREATHE MB is added to OSA therapy (Hybrid therapy) when high CPAP pressure causes side effects like water retention, swelling, acid reflux, bloating, disruption of sleep, air leaks, difficulty going to sleep or staying asleep etc.
5. Lower CPAP/BIPAP pressure: Sleep Physician or Cardiologist wants to protect the heart from adverse effects of high-pressure therapy. Adding AIO BREATHE MB to therapy can assist in reduction of pressure on CPAP/BIPAP.
6. Travel therapy of OSA with AIO BREATHE: More convenient and reliable therapy than CPAP/BIPAP. Many people use AIO BREATHE MB when on the road and combine it with a CPAP when at home.
7. Combine AIO BREATHE MB and AIO APP: This provides measurement of depth, quality and continuity of sleep. Your Physician can subscribe to AIOMEGA APP and can see your sleep quality graphic data. Your physician can adjust your treatment, and you can get the best results out of your therapy.

Strengths of AIO BREATHE MB

The AIO BREATHE MB follows the arc-of-motion of the jawbone thus advancing the tongue in a very natural way and provides on-demand airflow. AIO BREATHE MB is the first device that increases the size of the airway with incremental mouth opening while others only prevent airway closure during sleep. The unique features of this Mandibular Repositioning Device which are its light weight and small formfactor makes AIO BREATHE MB an attractive option for those who seek treatment of OSA yet place ease of use and portability over heavy cumbersome medical devices or surgically permanently implanted devices.
