Ventus Medical has received the prestigious Spark Award for its Theravent Advanced Nightly Snore Therapy. Theravent won silver in the 2012 Spark competition for Product Design. The Spark Awards reward innovative design that helps humanity or the environment. The mission of the award is to promote better living through better design.

“The Theravent product is already helping a lot of couples get a better night’s sleep,” says Peter Wyles, CEO and president of Ventus Medical. “Ventus worked with LUNAR on developing the very innovative Theravent product and we were able to create an elegant design that gives people an easy-to-use solution to effectively treat their snoring. This is an important accomplishment in a market where 45 million people snore and their bed partners suffer.”

Theravent is a disposable nightly snoring device that is FDA-cleared to reduce or eliminate snoring. It has been proven to reduce snoring in clinical studies and is available without a prescription. On average, successful Theravent users reduced snoring by 76%, as measured using a decibel meter worn on the forehead.
