FDA Approves Wireless Home Sleep Test
The recent FDA clearance of a wireless Type 2 home sleep testing system is more than just a regulatory milestone – it signals a meaningful shift in how sleep medicine may evolve outside the lab. Dormotech’s platform (formerly Vlab, now DormoVision X™) is described as a fully wireless, multi-channel system capable of capturing comprehensive physiological […]
Clinical Validation of the DormoTech Device for Comprehensive Sleep Monitoring
The Problem The current gold standard for diagnosing sleep disorders is in-lab polysomnography (PSG), which is often inconvenient, costly, and may not reflect a patient’s natural sleep environment. While home-use devices exist, they often collect a limited set of data, leading to inconclusive results. The Solution The DormoVision X™ platform is an FDA-cleared, wearable, and […]
The Effects of CPAP Therapy on Sleep Quality, Deep Sleep and Arousals
Dr. Saar Lanir-Azaria¹ 1 Dormotech Medical Introduction Sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBDs), including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), are highly prevalent and associated with substantial morbidity1. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) and the European Respiratory Society recommend continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy as the first-line treatment for moderate-to-severe OSA due to its proven efficacy in reducing […]
Computer-Based Detection of Cheyne–Stokes Breathing Using Dormotech Home Sleep Monitoring
Dr. Saar Lanir-Azaria¹ and Prof. Ofer Barnea² 1 Dormotech Medical 2 Tel Aviv University Introduction Cheyne-Stokes Breathing (CSB) is a distinctive manifestation of central sleep apnea (CSA), characterized by a cyclical waxing and waning pattern of ventilation culminating in central apneas or hypopneas. This stereotyped oscillation in respiratory drive reflects an underlying instability in the ventilatory control system, driven by enhanced […]
Combined Head-Body Positional Effects on Obstructive Sleep Apnea Severity: An Exploratory Case Study
Noa Scheinowitz¹, Dr. Saar Lanir-Azaria¹ 1 Dormotech Medical Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a highly heterogeneous disorder characterized by dynamic upper-airway collapse during sleep, with disease expression strongly modulated by sleep posture. Among the recognized phenotypic subtypes, positional obstructive sleep apnea (POSA) represents one of the most prevalent and clinically relevant forms, wherein respiratory instability is markedly […]
Concordance of AI-Assisted Sleep Scoring with Expert Manual Scoring
Chen Zusman¹, Dr. Saar Lanir-Azaria¹ 1 Dormotech Medical Abstract The Dormo Sleep Staging AI research is an ongoing research effort focused on developing a clinically grounded, automated sleep staging model for polysomnographic (PSG) recordings acquired in both home and laboratory environments. The proposed framework leverages multimodal physiological data, including EEG, EOG, chin EMG, respiratory airflow and effort signals, […]
DormoVision X™ vs. Attended PSG: 97% Diagnostic Agreement
A peer-reviewed study published in Sleep and Breathing (2025) puts the DormoTech Vlab head-to-head against attended in-laboratory polysomnography — and the results speak for themselves. Read the full publication: Fox et al., Sleep and Breathing (2025) Background & Clinical Need In-laboratory polysomnography remains the diagnostic reference standard for sleep-disordered breathing, yet its clinical utility is […]
Expert Insights: Pediatric Sleep Disorders & Why Early Diagnosis Matters with Dr. Asher Tal
Pediatric sleep disorders are more common—and more complex—than many realize. From sleep apnea to behavioral sleep issues, early identification is critical to ensuring proper development, cognitive function, and overall health in children. In this short video, we walk through how sleep disorders present in pediatric patients, what signs to look for, and why proper testing […]
