This trial is looking for people who might have obstructive sleep apnea and need a sleep test. Participants will monitor their oxygen levels at home for 7 nights and spend 1 night at a hospital for a more detailed assessment.
You may be able to join if
- I have suspected obstructive sleep apnea and need a sleep test.
You may not be able to join if
- I am younger than 18 years old.
- I cannot read or understand the consent form.
- I have a neuromuscular disease.
- I have a chest wall disease that causes breathing problems.

Answer a few quick questions to see if you may meet the eligibility requirements.
Check Your EligibilityThe investigators would like to evaluate the variability of oxygen (and PPG) parameters during 7 nights at home. Oxygen (and PPG) parameters will also be evaluated during 1 night at the hospital (diagnostic polysomnography). Based on currently developed algorithms, surrogate apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), cardiovascular status and the variability of these parameters will be evaluated.
