Sleep Apnea Data from Multiple Nights is Key to Predicting Hypertension and Cardiovascular Risk

New large-scale, longitudinal studies show that monitoring sleep for at least 14 nights at home with a connected sleep tracking mat, can reduce the 30% high error rate of sleep apnea diagnosis from the usual single-night, in hospital polysomnography (PSG) technique.
