Sleep apnea is a serious sleep disorder that affects millions of people worldwide, often going undiagnosed due to the inconvenience and cost of traditional in-lab sleep studies. However, thanks to innovations in sleep health technology, individuals can now access an accurate and reliable home sleep apnea test without ever leaving their bedroom. The NightOwl® by Shutize is leading the way in this field, offering a disposable, ultra-compact device designed for ultimate convenience and clinical-grade performance.
What is a Home Sleep Apnea Test?
A home sleep apnea test (HSAT) is a medical device designed to monitor and record your sleep patterns, oxygen levels, heart rate, and breathing effort while you sleep at home. It serves as a convenient alternative to traditional polysomnography performed in sleep laboratories. These tests are especially useful for diagnosing obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a condition in which the airway becomes partially or completely blocked during sleep.
Unlike in-lab studies that require you to sleep overnight in a clinical setting with multiple sensors and wires, HSATs like the NightOwl® provide a far more comfortable and accessible experience.
