Unlike many other tests that you have to do in a hospital or sleep laboratory, the Watch-PAT100 is an easy take home sleep test that allows you to sleep in your own bed and get the results in less than 24 hours. This compact device fits easily on a velcro armband with 2 finger sensors and body sensor attached. You then press the button and go to sleep. The next morning the Watch-PAT100 is returned to the office and you receive your results in a matter of minutes. Once your health care professional receives the results of the Watch-PAT100 test, they will be able to decide what the most appropriate treatment is for you.
