Real-world evaluation of the clinical performance and safety of apneal dx for the screening and aid in the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome in adults: a post-market clinical follow-up study
NCT ID NCT07809633
First seen Sep 09, 2026 · Last updated Sep 09, 2026
Summary
Sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) is a frequent and largely under-diagnosed sleep-related breathing disorder. Adult prevalence is estimated between 9% and 38%. Untreated SAHS increases cardiometabolic and neurocognitive risk. Reference diagnostic methods (in-lab polysomnography and ambulatory ventilatory polygraphy) have limited capacity, which delays care. Apneal Dx is a Class IIa software as a medical device (CE-marked 10 June 2026). It measures cardiorespiratory sleep activity using the sensors of a standard smartphone worn on the chest, with no additional sensor, to screen for and aid in the diagnosis of adult obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome at home. This study is a non-interventional, prospective, real-world post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) of Apneal Dx used within its intended purpose in routine care. It does not add any examination, visit, randomisation or change to patient management. Data are collected from automatic device logs and optional in-app questionnaires completed by patients and healthcare professionals. The study covers France, Spain, Italy, the United Kingdom and Germany. There is no investigational site and no principal investigator.
