Sommetrics has developed a proprietary technology known as aer+™, which utilizes negative external pressure applied to the neck to address issues related to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and chronic snoring. This innovative approach involves a soft silicone collar that creates a vacuum effect, helping to reduce airway narrowing during sleep. The aer+™ technology is designed to offer significant advantages over traditional treatments, potentially increasing the accessibility and effectiveness of therapy for a broader range of individuals suffering from these conditions.

In addition to the aer+™ technology, Sommetrics has introduced the aerFree™ product, which has received FDA clearance for use in acute care settings. This product leverages the same principles of negative pressure to maintain an open airway, demonstrating the company's commitment to improving sleep health through innovative solutions. By focusing on the underlying physiological factors contributing to sleep apnea, Sommetrics aims to address a critical unmet medical need, as a significant portion of the population remains undiagnosed or inadequately treated for sleep-related disorders.
