The Onera hPSG^®solution meets the VitalAire homecare therapy network, giving physicians a faster path from diagnosis to treatment while patients retain full freedom to choose their homecare provider

Onera Health, a leader in transforming sleep medicine, and VitalAire, the German homecare subsidiary of Air Liquide Healthcare, announced a collaboration to connect gold standard home-based sleep polysomnography diagnostics with sleep apnea therapy for patients across Germany.

Access to in-lab polysomnography in Germany is limited, forcing patients to often wait a long time for a diagnosis. This collaboration lets physicians order a home PSG online for privately insured patients that is then performed by the patient in their own bed, and – where therapy is indicated – patients are directly connected to an experienced homecare provider, thereby shortening the time between diagnosis and treatment. Patients keep their right to choose their own medical aids provider at every step.

The process is designed for clinical precision and ease of use. Once the physician places an order online, Onera ships the Onera hPSG^® patch-based sleep test directly to the patient's home. The patient then applies the sensors and sleeps in their own bed while capturing a gold-standard PSG data set. Onera then delivers a scored report to the physician, typically within 14 days of the order.

Following a confirmed diagnosis, the treating physician determines the appropriate treatment path. Where therapy is prescribed, VitalAire seamlessly coordinates the rapid initiation of home respiratory care – while fully respecting each patient’s free choice of provider – supported by its regional AtemCenter network, specialized home visits, and digital telemonitoring.

“Polysomnography, the gold standard sleep test, only benefits patients if a diagnosis leads to timely treatment. Working with VitalAire lets physicians in Germany offer full polysomnography at home and gives patients who need therapy the option of a defined, convenient route to an experienced homecare provider,” says Ruben de Francisco, Founder & CEO, Onera Health.

“Too many patients lose valuable time between diagnosis and therapy, risking serious long-term health complications. At VitalAire and Air Liquide Healthcare, our commitment to value-based care focuses on maximizing patient outcomes while optimizing costs for the healthcare system. By bridging home diagnostics and seamless therapy initiation – while always respecting the patient's full freedom to choose their provider – we can meaningfully improve quality of life from day one,” says Boyd Papprott, Director Sales, Marketing & Product Management, VitalAire Germany GmbH.
