The purpose of this study is to obtain additional safety and efficacy data on the use of Inspire® therapy for the treatment of subjects with moderate to severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
This is a multi-center, prospective, single-arm study conducted under a common implant and follow-up protocol. Each subject will serve as their own control.
The study will collect pre-operative two-night home sleep testing, medical history and subject quality of life measures. Intra- and post- operative procedure data will be collected. Therapy usage and device adjustment data, as well as a subject satisfaction with therapy survey, will be collected for additional analysis.
Post-implant, procedure- and device-related events, QoL questionnaires, therapy usage and device adjustment data will be collected. Sleep study data will collected during the 2-month visit and, if conducted, a 3-month visit using a single night in-lab titration PSGs At 6 and 12 months post-implant, 2-night home sleep testing will be completed. Safety data will be collected throughout the study. Subjects will be exited from the study following the 12-month visits.
The subject population will consist of otherwise healthy men and women that are at least 21 years old and have: 1) Provided written informed consent to participate, 2) Indicated a willingness to comply with study requirements for the specified follow-up duration, 3) Met all inclusion and exclusion criteria of this protocol.
Up to 60 subjects will be implanted at up to 5 sites in Germany.

| Number of Reported SAEs / Procedure & Device Related AEs | Safety of the therapy will be assessed via the description of all reported SAEs and all procedure- or device-related AEs. Adverse events will be summarized by seriousness, severity, relatedness to the device and/or procedure and temporal relationship to the procedure. No formal statistical hypotheses will be tested. Only device- or procedure-related AEs will be collected in this post-market study. | 12 months post-implant |

| Change from Baseline OSA at 12 Months | Frequencies and description statistics will be used to describe the data gathered in this study. A statistical comparison of pre-implant baseline and follow-up data may be performed. Efficacy endpoints will evaluate changes in subjects' quality of life (QoL) and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) severity through:
