ResMed
The sleep lab, in a pocket.
ApneaLink Air records nasal flow, snoring, respiratory effort, pulse and oxygen saturation through a nasal cannula, the EasySense effort belt and an XPOD oximeter. Patients start and stop it with one button, and lights confirm good signals and a complete test. The ApneaLink software then scores AHI, hypopnoea index, ODI, flow limitation and snoring, separates obstructive from central apnoeas and flags probable Cheyne–Stokes respiration.
Key specifications
Why the ApneaLink Air
One-touch for patients
A single Start/Stop button and set-up lights help patients apply the sensors correctly at home, reducing failed nights and repeat tests.
Five channels, one night
Nasal flow, snoring, effort, pulse and oxygen saturation are recorded together, with body position stored as an EDF+ file.
Test-complete light
In the morning a light tells the patient whether enough data was recorded for analysis before the device is returned.
Automatic scoring
Software calculates AHI, HI and ODI, distinguishes obstructive from central apnoeas and estimates Cheyne–Stokes probability, with manual scoring available.
Reports for referrers
Colour-keyed summary, signal and extended reports can be printed or e-mailed to referring physicians.
Where it is used
Sleep clinics, respiratory and ENT practices, cardiology and diabetes services, and home sleep testing programmes run by hospitals and home-care providers.

ApneaLink Air or full polysomnography?
ApneaLink Air is a Type III device that aids diagnosis of sleep-disordered breathing in adults at home. It does not record EEG or sleep stages; complex cases still need in-lab polysomnography.
Is it for children?
