The ZZOMA Positional Sleeper is indicated for use and intended for professional use for the treatment of mild to moderate, predominantly positional obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and to reduce or alleviate snoring. The ZZOMA Positional Sleeper is intended for use by professional healthcare personnel trained in its use. Caution: Federal law restricts the device to sale by or on the order of a physician or dentist.
Device Story
ZZOMA Positional Sleeper is a wearable, non-electronic, mechanical device designed to prevent supine sleeping. It consists of a semi-rigid synthetic foam wedge contained in a backpack-style harness with an adjustable Velcro elastic belt. The device is worn on the back; the wedge-shaped design physically keeps the user in a lateral (side) position during sleep. It is used in a clinical or home setting under the guidance of professional healthcare personnel. By preventing the supine position, the device reduces airway obstruction in patients with positional OSA, thereby alleviating snoring and improving sleep quality. It serves as an alternative to CPAP therapy for positional OSA patients.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical study compared ZZOMA Positional Sleeper to CPAP therapy in patients with positional OSA. Study findings: 1) Positional therapy is equivalent to CPAP in normalizing the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) in positional OSA patients; 2) Decreased AHI by >30%; 3) Similar to CPAP regarding effects on sleep quality and nocturnal oxygenation; 4) Effective at maintaining patients in the non-supine position throughout the night.
Technological Characteristics
Mechanical positional therapy device. Materials: semi-rigid synthetic foam core, nylon outer cover, cotton-covered body contact surface with PVC dots for stability. Dimensions: 12 x 5.5 x 4 inches. Form factor: backpack-style harness with adjustable Velcro elastic belt. Non-electronic; no energy source. No software or connectivity.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with mild to moderate, predominantly positional obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and for the reduction or alleviation of snoring. Intended for professional use by trained healthcare personnel.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Intraoral devices for snoring and intraoral devices for snoring and obstructive sleep apnea are devices that are worn during sleep to reduce the incidence of snoring and to treat obstructive sleep apnea. The devices are designed to increase the patency of the airway and to decrease air turbulence and airway obstruction. The classification includes palatal lifting devices, tongue retaining devices, and mandibular repositioning devices.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for these devices is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intraoral Devices for Snoring and/or Obstructive Sleep Apnea; Guidance for Industry and FDA.”
