BioResearchAlert -- The
global sleep apnea devices market size was valued at
USD 3.7 billion in 2020
and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR)
of 6.2% from 2021 to 2028. Sleep apnea is a sleeping disorder,
characterized by irregular breathing, thus providing insufficient
oxygen to the brain. According to an American Sleep Association
study published in 2020, an estimated 50 million to 70 million
people in the U.S. are suffering from some form of sleep disorders.
Moreover, according to Canadian Respiratory Journal in 2014, around
5.4 million adults in Canada were diagnosed with sleep apnea or
were at higher risk of developing OSA. According to a study
conducted by ResMed in 2018, around 175 million people in Europe
were suffering from sleep apnea.

APPYEA, Inc. (APYP:
OTC) is launching a patented unique treatment for snoring and
sleeping disorders that uses a wristband to communicate with a
smart phone. When the device detects any irregular breathing
patterns or snoring, the wristband vibrates at a gently level that
is not enough to wake the subject, but just enough to transition
them into a lighter sleep phase that after repeated use, trains the
brain to breath properly.

The app turns any smartphone into a snore monitoring device that
also serves as a control panel. By tracking sleep patterns, the app
uses machine learning to adapt the treatment and recommends
improvements to sleeping patterns and breathing habits. Over a
short period of time, the brain uses
bio-feedback
to retrain itself to achieve proper breathing.
