Summary
1. What is oximeter sleep screening?
Oximeter sleep sorting is a solution so that, through its oxygenation and heartbeat, it is possible to detect symptoms, monitor and even start treatment of possible breathing disorders that cause effects such as snoring.
It is ideal for those with high snoring complaints at night and drowsiness and/or fatigue during the day. We send the oximeter to you, and you guarantee 1 year of premium plan to continue doing digital therapies and monitoring through the diaries and reports of Sleepup.
2. What is the recommended time to use the oximeter during sleep?
We recommend use for at least 6 hours for more accurate results. In order to generate its result, one night is mandatory using the oximeter for at least 4 hours.
3. Do I need to stay with the phone on during oximetry?
No. The device stores up to 3 (three) records, dispensing with use with the phone during sleep.
4. What is ODI?
ODI is the acronym for oxygen desaturation index. It serves as a parameter to evaluate the degree of severity of an obstructive sleep apnea. It is calculated from how many oxygen falls ≥ 3% or 4% were during oximetry.
5. Is it safe to self-diagnose after the screening?
No, never make a self -diagnosis. Take the results to your doctor or specialized health professionals to have greater guidance on the ideal treatment options and therapies for your case.
