How sleep monitoring devices are tested for safety
Volunteer study participants are recruited by ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ based on the intended claims of the product to be tested. For example, a device claiming to diagnose sleep apnea or other related conditions needs to be tested in individuals already confirmed to have this disorder, as well as individuals who have not had sleep studies in the past. Our database of participants includes several thousand individuals both with and without sleep apnea.
Participants are brought into a lab setting, fitted with a variety of monitors, and asked to sleep overnight with at least 4-6 hours of continuous sleep data.
Once the data has been collected, ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½’s experts analyze the data and provide a final report ready for regulatory submission. Our physicians are certified in sleep medicine by the American Board of Sleep Medicine.
Alternatively, if the study is purely for development purposes, only data will be provided to the sponsor. So, let’s talk about your device and how our sleep device validation services can make a difference.
Why sleep monitoring device validation is important
Devices must be tested for safety before they can be used in a sleep study to diagnose relatively common sleep disorders including sleep apnea, insomnia, and narcolepsy. During a sleep study, patients are connected to a variety of monitors to measure indicators such as blood oxygen, respiratory rate, heart rate, eye movement, body movement, and brain activity. A board-certified physician will then evaluate the data, including sleep stages, and make a diagnosis. Need support testing your sleep monitoring device? Let’s talk.
