Sorry I meant sleep gadgets like cooling pads, not referring to medical devices

Indeed but for completeness CPAPs is not the only available therapy out there nowadays.

Specifically for patients with _positional_ sleep apnea there are wearables (actual medical device not welness) that stop the patient from sleeping on their back, and hence stop the positional obstruction.

These wearables are way less cumbersome and invasive than pressure devices.
