ApneaLink™
A simple, convenient and reliable tool for identifying patients at risk of sleep-disordered breathing
About 5% of all people are affected by sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), the most common form being obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Although this condition can be treated effectively by continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy, the majority of OSA sufferers have yet to be diagnosed
