Measures true sleep time, sleep architecture, and central sleep apnea.
Validated against standard polysomnography (PSG).

FAQs
Understanding The Home Sleep Test
-
Sometimes sleep studies cause just enough anxiety that it makes proper sleep feel hard for the participant.
That said, in most cases, the home sleep test device can get enough information for conclusive results, even if your sleep feels “bothered”.
If you really can’t sleep (less than 2.5 hours of sleep), you may need to retake the sleep test.
-
Home sleep studies use a collection of sensors to track key metrics related to how your body functions during sleep, airflow, breathing, heart rate, and body position.
The Itamar WatchPAT™ One uses a wrist sensor, pulse oximeter, and chest sensor to track data in 7 areas related to sleep wellness: Apnea events (central and obstructive), true sleep time, snoring and breathing patterns, oxygen saturation, heart rate, sleep stages, and body position.
This gives a total view of your sleep health and what may be disrupting it.
-
If you suspect you have sleep apnea, you have two basic options for testing.
Traditionally, studies were conducted in a sleep lab over one to two nights. However, technology has provided a simpler alternative: the at-home sleep study. Either test to detect sleep apnea requires a prescription from a physician before you can take it.
-
Sleep apnea can be diagnosed through a home sleep test. These tests can provide sufficient data for a positive diagnosis in just one night of sleep.
The sensor data is sent directly to a sleep physician from your cell phone’s Bluetooth. Home sleep tests will help to diagnose sleep apnea, but may not provide enough data for other sleep order diagnoses such as restless leg syndrome or narcolepsy.
-
A sleep study is performed to diagnose sleep apnea, and other breathing conditions that can disrupt someone’s sleep and overall health.
-
You cannot get a CPAP without a prescription. In the United States, a CPAP machine is a federally regulated medical device that requires a prescription. The way to obtain one is to complete a sleep study, which can be done at home or at a sleep lab.
-
The accuracy of home sleep apnea tests ranges widely, between 68% and 91%. The accuracy depends on the type of device used and whether you are at high or low risk for having sleep apnea. The tests are significantly more accurate for people at a higher risk.
-
Experts recommend that home sleep apnea tests be taken only once. If the results are inconclusive or negative, your doctor may instruct you to do a polysomnography in a sleep lab to ensure accurate results.
