## Indications for use
The HomeSleepTest is a non-invasive prescription device for home use with patients suspected to have sleep disorders including sleep-related breathing disorders. The HomeSleepTest is a diagnostic aid for the detection of sleep-related breathing disorders, sleep staging (REM, N1, N2, N3, Wake), and snoring level. Using three frontal electrodes and one mastoid electrode, the HomeSleepTest records electrical data. In addition, the device records triaxial accelerometer data, ambient light and acoustic data. With help of the ComfortOxyRing, the device records plethysmographic data, as well as SpO2, heart rate and activity data. The HomeSleepTest calculates and reports to clinicians EEG/EOG/EMG, sleep stages, SpO2, plethysmography, pulse rate and snoring level. Based on this, the HomeSleepTest indices derived parameters, such as autonomic arousal (based on plethysmogram of ring), oxygen desaturation index and hypnogram-derived indices, such as time in each sleep stage, as well as other sleep-related parameters, to aid in determining sleep quality and quantity. HomeSleepTest data is not intended to be used as the sole or primary basis for diagnosing any sleep disorders, or sleep-related breathing disorders, prescribing treatment, or determining whether additional diagnostic assessment is warranted. The HomeSleepTest is not intended for use in life-support and monitoring systems. The HomeSleepTest and its accessories are not intended for patients requiring monitoring and intensive care. The HomeSleepTest is a prescription device indicated for adult patients aged 21 years and over.
