Ann Int Med 119:449-453, 5281993., Series,F.,et al, 1993
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
A negative home oximetry test result is helpful in ruling out the diagnosis of SAHS in patients clinically suspected of having this syndrome,because a negative test result reduced the probability from 54.1% to 3.1%in our patients.However,a positive oximetry test increased the probability from 46%to 61.4%in our group of patients.
