An interesting new way to detect people who suffer from Sleep Apnea has been developed by Remote Analysis Ltd. Using of all things an Iphone it is claimed that by analysing the sounds you make while you sleep can predict whether you suffer from or will suffer from sleep apnea.
This Iphone application is inexpensive and very easy to use. You place the Iphone near where you sleep on a night stand for example. Hit the record button and go to sleep as normal. In the morning stop the recording and use the application to analyse the noises you made in the night.
The system shows you a graph showing of when you actually snored during the night and you can listen to the clips and compare them to samples provided of people who actually have sleep apnea.
So what’s so special about this after all it doesn’t stop you snoring does it? Well no it doesn’t but with sleep apnea being a condition that its best to know about (it can cause some serious health problems) a heads up to ensure you go and see your doctor is a good thing.
It can also be used by a snorers partner to prove to the guilty party that they actually do snore loudly at night and that they may want to look at Effective Sleeping Aids to help them stop snoring.
