Another breakthrough for Sleep Apnea would be getting health care insurers to accept the CurAegis data as they do the test center results. The current test is crazy. You are so covered with wires and sensors that you can't really sleep on your side. Plus it is an unfamiliar room with noise, light and warm instead of cool.
Despite all that, you definitely should take the test. CPAP machines are weird, but you will sleep better. Without it, patients literally stop breathing, the oxygen level of the blood is way down and you feel tired all the time. That situation where someone is snoring and they pause, is the body in crisis. Not good.
If our watch can help people prevent heart attacks due to Apnea, as well as monitor issues while awake, many people who aren't in high risk jobs will want to wear one. Besides talking to hospitals for use with newborns or long term patients, I hope the sales people have talked to general practitioners and elder care physicians. If it has a general alarm that an elderly patient could push in case of a fall, that could replace the alarm pendant that most nursing homes have for residents.
