Pulse oximeter sleep study

Hi there,

I have been diagnosed with sleep apnea and have been prescribed a custom fitted mandibular advancement device (MAD).
My doctor wants to see if this helps before putting me on CPAP.

I want to monitor my progress using a fingertip pulse oximeter and transfer the data to my Mac laptop.
I have been looking around for a suitable product - there's a lot to choose from - but none of them mentions if it comes with any software which is essential for a sleep study.

Can you recommend a product?

Thanks,
Chris

Thanks for letting me know, but unfortunately the software doesn't support Mac users...

Did some research and it seems Mac users will havet to run Windows using Bootcamp or Parallels since there's no software for Mac. I'm fine with that btw.

Glad you can use it, if you choose to buy it. I got it because it's what others were using with sleepyhead, it works well and is cheap enough.

google teeth deformity using the guard that moves the jaw forward. It seems the pressure act like braces and move teeth.

Your Doctor has no clue, XPAP is the Gold Standard of Sleep Apnea treatment, Good luck using the Lead Standard, it didn't work well in Mich> Jim

I use a CMS 50i which can record several nights and has a rechargeable battery. There is also a CMS 50iw for WiFi connection to a computer.
