Platform Linked to Ring Pulse Oximeter Monitors, Analyzes Night-to-Night Sleep Metrics

SAN FRANCISCO — In two trials for sleep-related breathing diseases, a software platform analyzed nightly sleep metrics from a ring pulse oximeter, according to a presentation at the American Thoracic Society International Conference.“[With this platform,] everyday clinicians will be able to focus more time on patient care and use data-generated insights to inform the care team on what really matters prior to a patient visit,” Ketan Mehta, MS, head of product and engineering for Connected Wearables at Apnimed, told Healio.In this analysis, Mehta and colleagues evaluated patients with sleep-related breathing diseases enrolled in either an ongoing open-label study of AD019 (Apnimed; n = 392) or an ongoing CPAP adherence feasibility study (n = 31), both of which used the Connected Wearables platform consisting of a mobile app for the patient, cloud services and a portal/dashboard with advanced algorithms for the clinician.

Researchers reported that the SpO2 processor can measure various sleep metrics, including the mean and lowest SpO2, mean desaturation, oxygen desaturation index (ODI4), time below 90% (T90%), hypoxic burden and total recording time. Of these metrics, patients can access mean SpO2, ODI4, T90% and total recording time on the app.In addition to the above measures, researchers highlighted that the Connected Wearables platform also captures responses to patient-reported outcomes (PROs) via the mobile app, which are then uploaded to the cloud for analysis.
