“Having an Owlet monitor at home meant we had more information to share with her doctors.”

 

"The red notification on our daughter's Dream Sock started going off at night consistently. She never turned blue and always woke up when I checked her, but it was still concerning. I let our pediatrician know but they told me not to worry because her oxygen was fine in the office on room air. The red notification on our Dream Sock continued to go off and we still couldn’t identify what was going on. We even checked with an additional Owlet sock monitor but the alarms still went off regardless of which foot the monitor was on, and the app showed her oxygen saturation readings were consistently dropping into the 70s. 

I was able to bring the data to my pediatrician and show her that her oxygen saturation readings in the Owlet app weren't ever over 90% at night. Our pediatrician let me explain more about Owlet and decided to order her an official overnight test. That test confirmed what our Owlet devices had been showing us the whole time. 

We were able to get oxygen delivered, which she uses at night. We went through a lot of testing and found out our baby has pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). There is no cure for this, and her doctors have told us that finding it when they did helps them plan how to best care for her. 

We are eternally grateful for your product. Having an Owlet monitor at home meant we had more information to share with her doctors, and we feel that played an important part in getting her the care she needed. We have more testing to do but we are so thankful that Owlet helped us gather information that our doctors were able to use as part of evaluating and caring for our baby." - Tisha Z.
