5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Didgeridoo practice has been shown to improve OSA severity. The aim of our study is to assess the changes in upper airways obstruction levels before and after Didgeridoo practice in moderate OSA patients.
Detailed Description
Didgeridoo practice has been shown to improve Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) severity. The aim of our study is to assess the changes in upper airways obstruction levels, evaluated by sleep endoscopy, before and after 3 months of Didgeridoo practice in moderate non obese OSA patients. Severity of OSA will also be documented by polysomnography.
