The information supplied doesn't indicate that it will record and store data over night. I would certainly check on that.
If it doesn't, I wouldn't get it. It won't tell you what you really want to know, which is if your cpap therapy is keeping
your blood oxygen level up while you sleep.

Sleepyhead,

If you type in "pulse oximeter" in the Search Engine above . . . you'll get a lot of threads to read that folks here have written on pulse oximeters.
