While some sleep issues do require the capabilities of an attended, overnight sleep study, the vast majority identify a condition known as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) where you stop breathing for periods of 10 seconds or more - sometimes much longer - leading to drops in your blood oxygen level and numerous complications that arise from this highly repetitive cycle, many being very harmful and potentially deadly. They were also very obtrusive, typically requiring up to 13 electrodes to be placed on your body, while you tried to sleep in a strange environment, while being watched on closed circuit TV, making it very difficult to get a truly representative night's sleep. Sleep Studies historically took weeks or months to schedule, required an overnight stay in a hospital or sleep lab, and cost thousands of dollars. When the battery is depleted, throw it away. There is no need to return the device, recharge the battery, be concerned out disinfecting it or return to the Doctors office to initiate future studies as it is all able to be done remotely from home. We leverage the best of micro-electronics, biomedical signal processing and data science to bring products that are vastly more elegant and effective. Night Owl Sleep Coach is an innovative self-help program based on cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia. Initial and subsequent studies are easily initiated by eMail which contains a link to seamlessly activate the NightOwl. We're a medtech startup on a mission to restore the sleep of the one billion people that suffer from a sleep disorder. This provides you unprecedented ease, efficiency and economics of determining how well any needed therapies, or changes in health or lifestyle may affect your patient's Sleep Apnea. This can be done at any point over the 3-5 year battery life. Powered by a lithium battery, the NightOwl isREUSABLE with the ability to monitor up to 100 hours of data, enabling you to obtain an assessment of your sleep over multiple nights for the most realistic depiction of your sleep patterns.
This makes self-administering the study about as easy as putting on a band-aid. Held in place with a simple adhesive strip, the device transmits its findings wirelessly to the nearby cell phone, which then transmits the recorded data directly to your physician the next morning. Harnessing the connectivity of bluetooth, the internet and smartphones, the tiny NightOwl sensor is activated and placed on the fingertip, using light transmission to monitor tiny yet identifiable changes in the vessels in the distal tip of the finger. Going to bed late, also known as being a night owl, was linked to increased use of alcohol and tobacco and early death, a new study found.
