Millions of people unknowingly suffer from sleep apnea, a sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts throughout the night. This condition can lead to fatigue, high blood pressure, heart problems, and other health risks if left undiagnosed. Fortunately, identifying the signs of sleep apnea is now easier than ever—thanks to the sleep apnea home test.
With advanced technology like the NightOwl® Home Sleep Test from Shutize, you can now monitor your sleep patterns and get accurate, medically-reviewed results from your own home—no sleep lab, wires, or appointments needed.
What Is a Sleep Apnea Home Test?
A sleep apnea home test is a simplified way to detect sleep apnea using portable equipment that monitors your sleep while you're in your own bed. These tests focus on key indicators such as oxygen levels, breathing interruptions, and heart rate.
Traditionally, diagnosing sleep apnea required a night in a sleep clinic connected to machines and monitored by specialists. But today’s smart, compact devices like NightOwl® have brought the same clinical accuracy to your fingertips—literally.
