Yes definitely. Potentially it could be diagnostic too - the periods of apnoea would probably have a unique audio and accelerometer signal.
OSA is typically diagnosed now with polysomnographs, which have a lot of wires and sensors and are quite uncomfortable to sleep with. I think there are a few startups in this space, making much more lightweight and comfortable hardware. It may be interesting to just use a phone though..
- bboygravity 2y agoAnecdote: I did 5 sleep tests (over the course of 6 years or so) with different hospitals in different countries with very differing results. I (EE) have 0 trust in the hardware/software of some of these devices. 1st test (the most elaborate in-hospital polysomnography with the tons of wires and not being able to move around): AHI 17 Subsequent ones all of the "take-home/installed at homee" portable type: 2nd: AHI 6 3rd: magically completely cured AHI 0 4th: AHI 5 5th: AHI 7 Yeah right...
- heavysnorlax 2y agoHave you found any root cause or are you still suffering from sleeping issues? I also repeated 3 times the exam with different results and I'm a bit discouraged about this situation at the moment
