Assessing Patient Eligibility for Inspire Therapy through Machine Learning and Deep Learning Models

Inspire therapy is an FDA-approved internal neurostimulation treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. However, not all patients respond to this therapy, posing a challenge even for experienced otolaryngologists to determine candidacy. This paper makes the first attempt to leverage both machine learning and deep learning techniques in discerning patient responsiveness to Inspire therapy using medical data and videos captured through Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy (DISE), an essential procedure for Inspire therapy. To achieve this, we gathered and annotated three datasets from 127 …
