The Apple Watch not only enables crew to receive a heads-up about upcoming fatigue risk in their roster using individual settings and logged sleep informing BAM, creating greater fatigue risk awareness - now you can also get to grips with early indicators of sleep apnea.
Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder characterized by repeated interruptions in breathing during sleep. These pauses in breathing, called apneas, can last from a few seconds to a minute and may occur many times per hour. This disrupts sleep, often leading to poor sleep quality, daytime fatigue, and other health issues.
In the latest version of Apple Health you can monitor for signs of sleep apnea. You will need to:
Use an Apple Watch Series 9 or later or Apple Watch Ultra 2, with the latest version of watchOS.
Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
Use Track Sleep with Apple Watch turned on.
Wear your Apple Watch to sleep for a minimum of 10 nights over a 30 day period. Your data will be analyzed every 30 days.
Note that sleep apnea notifications are intended for use by people 18 years or older who have not been diagnosed with sleep apnea.
