NightOwl Home Sleep Test
NightOwl is a clinically validated and FDA-approved device to detect sleep apnea symptoms with a sensor that attaches to your fingertip.
Your smartphone transmits data to the lab; results are returned in 48 hours.
Measurements:
Actigraphy: a built-in accelerometer to tracks your body motions to determine when you are asleep or awake.
Blood oxygen level: Night Owl monitors your blood oxygen levels, which decrease during a sleep apnea event.
Peripheral arterial tone (PAT): Peripheral Arterial Tone (PAT) is a unique physiological signal that mirrors changes in the autonomic nervous system (ANS) caused by respiratory disturbances during sleep. The ANS regulates many of our essential functions, and it does this without our conscious control, regulating blood vessel size, blood pressure, airflow in the lungs, and the heart’s electrical activity and ability to contract. Night Owl measures the changes in the PAT signal (see the graphic below).
Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI): Night Owl measures the changes in the PAT signal, oxygen levels, and actigraphy, and derives the patient’s apnea-hypopnea index. AHI is the scale used to measure the severity of OSA and is calculated by dividing the total number of episodes of shallow or halted breathing by the total number of hours a person is asleep.
