Has anyone heard of this product for sleep apnea called Bongo or The Bongo? I heard someone was part of clinical trials already in Texas and that it works as good as their cpap. Does anyone know where I can get them to try?

Not sure of an outcome of the study you refer to as the link above says the study was terminated. Not sure if that means the study is finished or never happened.

Hi ThoughtfulCoffeeTrout9208. It appears the device was an EPAP device that was being tested by Innomed. Innomed is a company that makes CPAP masks. I am not sure about this particular treatment, but there are a couple of forms of EPAP therapy available, such as Provent. Hope this helps.

Seems the trials for Bongo are in Oakland California and they are still recruiting. Its online. Google BONGO , clinical trials, sleep apnea. The patient is on it for several weeks with overnight sleep lab test first and last night. It is a paid study.
