Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What does the AHI value shown on the device mean, and how should I use it?
AHI is an index related to breathing events during sleep as recorded by the device throughout the night. It is mainly useful for monitoring and comparing sessions (for example, night to night). For interpretation and next steps, it is best to rely on a healthcare professional’s assessment.
How can I reduce noisy readings during overnight oximetry to get a cleaner recording?
Proper placement of the SpO2 sensor on the finger, keeping the hand as steady as possible, and avoiding large movements during sleep can help. Correct positioning of the nasal tube and comfortable cable routing can also reduce signal interruptions. If the device reports “finger not detected”, re-check sensor position and contact.
What is the practical difference between disposable and reusable SpO2 sensors?
Disposable sensors are convenient for occasional use or when simpler hygiene handling is needed, while reusable sensors are intended for repeated sessions with cleaning according to the instructions for use. The right choice depends on how often you plan to record and whether the setting is home or professional.
