## Indications for use
The intended use of the "Oxi-Snap" device is to screen patients for apnea and snoring and to provide quantitative and qualitative analysis of apnea and snoring. The Oxi-SNAP testing system is only intended for short term monitoring such as to record the oximetry level continuously during the night. The "Oxi-SNAP" system is not intended as a substitute for full polysomnography when additional parameters such as sleep stages, limb movements or EEG activity are required. The target population is patients who are suspected of apnea and/or complain about snoring. The majority of the screenings are going to take place at the patient's home, although some may take place in a sleep laboratory. Both pediatric and adult patients may be tested.
