Abstract

Described herein are nasal respiratory devices and methods for treating a variety of medical diseases including snoring and sleep apnea through the use of such devices. In general, theses devices include an airflow resistor (4), such as a flap valve (32) and a holdfast (5) for securing the device in communication with the subject's nasal cavity (16). The devices may be configured to include leak paths to regulate the expiratory pressure when worn by a subject. Methods for using these devices may include securing a device over or at least partially within (or both of) a subject's nasal cavities.
