摘要：
Devices, systems, and methods resist posterior movement of the tongue duringsleep, thereby keeping an airway open. An implant device (10), has a ferromagneticstructure (14), that, when implanted, occupies only one lateral side of the tonguewhen implanted. The ferromagnetic structure (14), magnetically interactswith a magnetized material (12), placed in a desired relationship with the tongueto stabilize a preferred tongue orientation.
