Complications may arise related to all components. Previous studies have presented the overall incidence of reported adverse events. The objective of this study was to provide an updated report of complications from the Food and Drug Administration's Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database, with a focus on the respiratory sensing lead, and propose a care algorithm with two cases of sensing lead migration.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Study Design<\/jats:title><jats:p>Retrospective cross\u2010sectional study, case report.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Setting<\/jats:title><jats:p>Tertiary care center.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The MAUDE database was queried for events related to the HGNS respiratory sensing lead from January 1, 2000, to December 1, 2022.

There were seven events related to migration of the sensing lead into the pleural space, of which six cases underwent revision surgery (&lt;1% of adverse events reported related to HGNS). Two cases noted pneumothorax due to sensing lead migration. We report two cases of sensing lead migration at our institution. Migration was demonstrated with serial imaging. These cases highlight the potential need for preoperative or intraoperative chest tube placement, based on the extent of migration, complications, and complexity.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Migration of the respiratory sensing lead is a rare event with multidisciplinary surgical planning considerations.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/oto2.70141","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,12]],"date-time":"2025-06-12T09:45:48Z","timestamp":1749721548000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation Respiratory Lead Migration: MAUDE Database Review and Case Report"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"9","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0131-6977","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Emily A.","family":"Commesso","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Head and Neck Surgery &amp; Communication Sciences Duke University School of Medicine Durham North Carolina USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6799-2081","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marcus F.","family":"Paoletti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California Los Angeles California USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3808-4521","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eric J.","family":"Kezirian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Head and Neck Surgery David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA Los Angeles California USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.amjoto.2020.102616"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0194599820960069"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.31056"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ohn.883"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.28286"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1308659"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","unstructured":"Inspire 4340 medical device identification.
