For doctors and sleep specialists

The technology inside the ring

The Belun Sleep System BLS-100 is FDA 510(k)-cleared (K222579) to aid in evaluating moderate to severe sleep-related breathing disorders in adults aged 22 and over with suspected sleep apnea.

Signals from the finger base

A PPG optical sensor records SpO2 and beat-to-beat pulse, with actigraphy for movement. The ring sits on the palm side of the base of the index finger to reduce motion artefact.

Deep-learning AHI

Algorithms estimate the apnea-hypopnea index (bAHI) from the pattern of SpO2, pulse rate, pulse-rate variability and movement.

Scored over sleep time

Wake, NREM and REM are classified (bSTAGES), and the AHI and ODI are calculated over estimated total sleep time rather than total recording time.

Autonomic insight

Heart-rate variability is used to report the autonomic nervous system (ANS) response.

Clinical suitability

Is this test right for you?

Home sleep apnea testing may be appropriate for adults whose symptoms raise concern for obstructive sleep apnea, such as loud snoring, pauses in breathing noticed by a partner or daytime sleepiness. The Belun system is cleared for adults aged 22 and over, to aid in evaluating moderate to severe sleep-related breathing disorders.

A clinician may recommend an attended sleep study instead of, or after, a home test, especially when health needs are complex or a result is negative or inconclusive despite ongoing symptoms.

The result is not an automatic diagnosis or treatment prescription. A qualified clinician should interpret it together with your health history and symptoms.

Frequently asked questions

Before booking your sleep test

Does ApneaLink Air use a nasal cannula?

Yes. ApneaLink Air uses a nasal cannula, an effort belt and a finger sensor. Follow the supplied setup instructions for your recording.

Am I buying the study device?

No. You are booking one overnight study with ApneaLink Air or Belun Ring. The equipment is returned after use.

How much does the test cost?

ApneaLink Air costs AED 675 per study; Belun Ring costs AED 500 per study.

Why is the Belun Ring more comfortable?

There is nothing on your face or chest: no nasal tube, no belts and no wires. You wear one ring on your finger and sleep in your own bed.

How accurate is the Belun study?

In a study of 84 adults recorded at the same time as a full in-lab sleep study, Belun's result correlated with the lab result at r = 0.90, with 0.89 accuracy at AHI ≥ 15 (Sleep Health, 2023). Your doctor interprets the result with your symptoms and health history.

How do I use my sleep report?

Share your sleep report with your clinician to discuss the findings and your next steps. They will interpret the results alongside your symptoms and health history.

What if the Belun recording fails?

If the recording fails or is unusable, we repeat the study free of charge. Contact our team on WhatsApp to arrange it.
