The company is set to launch its first U.S. consumer campaign aimed at destigmatizing CPAP therapy and positioning sleep health as more approachable. It will also introduce a targeted primary care physician (PCP) education campaign, starting in the United States, to help drive earlier diagnosis and intervention for sleep apnea and a sleep health awareness campaign in key markets across Asia Pacific and Europe focused on helping to overcome the barriers to seeking treatment for sleep apnea.
