Current Apnea

Rating: 5/5

I am a sleep apnea patient. So I already know that I snore and have sleep apnea. This was a test for me too. Get a new machine after not having a new CPAP in over 12 years while sleeping with my CPAP machine was uncomfortable. This was a lot more comfortable to wear the small device on my finger rather than going in with all of the wires hooked up to my chest and head and sleeping in an odd environment while being tested overnight like they did it in the old days . I have not gotten my results back yet because I just used the device last night. However, the ease of use is a 10 out of 10. Fingers crossed that their results show as they’re supposed to

Very easy to use, with good instructions given to me through the app as I started each night’s test. The only issue is the app gives us no way to “Cancel” a night’s test if there was a bad night or disrupted night of sleep. The app assumes that people have perfect nights of sleep every night worthy of which to diagnose sleep issues. No we don’t! Please add a “Cancel Test” button next to the Stop Recording button on the screen that stays up all night, so we can cancel a test if we need and try again the next night. This is why I’m giving you a rating of 3, otherwise it would be a 5. This ability to cancel a test if we need is THAT important, otherwise the reviewing doctors of the test will give diagnoses based on bad test data.

I needed this for sleep apnea and only received the oximeter thing. I snore worse than a bear and have been told I do stop breathing . Not to mention have had b/p issues , irregular h/b , and have had stroke like symptoms in the past , why wasn’t a monitor and more provided? In actual sleep studies they listen , they see(check for tremors) , they put an EKG , and wires on the head to see when, if you hit REM sleep, oximeter, etc Is it because it’s all my insurance will provide ? Or because my Dr. made an error??
