Sleep apnea affects about 18 million people. This condition is linked as a major contributor to atrial fibrillation as well as multiple other health issues. Individuals have previously had to go to sleep centers for diagnosis, which is time consuming, and people generally do not sleep well in a foreign environment. "The Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research (Mayo Clinic) has purchased the WatchPAT device, an FDA-approved sleep apnea home testing device developed by Israeli medical diagnostics company Itamar Medica." nocamels -- Israeli innovation News 
WatchPAT is an FDA-approved portable diagnostic device that uniquely uses finger based physiology and innovative technology to enable simple and accurate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) testing while avoiding the complexity and discomfort associated with traditional air-flow based systems.
