Overview
Home oximetry is a portable monitor that records similar information to a polysomnogram. The results of home oximetry are not diagnostic, but may determine the need for polysomnography to either confirm or rule out sleep apnea.

- As known as a home-based portable monitor
- The portable monitor will record some of the same information as a polysomnogram
