Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in children is a prevalent and serious respiratory condition linked to cardiovascular morbidity. Polysomnography, the standard diagnostic approach, faces challenges in accessibility and complexity, leading to underdiagno...
Sleep apnea, a fatal sleep disorder causing repetitive respiratory cessation, requires immediate intervention due to neuropsychological issues. However, existing approaches such as polysomnography, considered the most reliable and accurate test to de...
PURPOSE: Despite increased awareness of sleep hygiene, over 80% of sleep apnea cases remain undiagnosed, underscoring the need for accessible screening methods. This study presents a method for detecting sleep apnea using data from the Apple Watch's ...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is widespread, under-recognized, and under-treated, impacting the health and quality of life for millions. The current gold standard for sleep apnea testing is based on the in-lab sleep study, which is costly, cumbersome...
Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) affects about 3-7% of the global population, but is often undiagnosed. It involves pauses in breathing during sleep, for at least 10 s, due to partial or total airway blockage. The current gold standard for diagnosing SAS i...
BACKGROUND: Early detection of sleep apnea, the health condition where airflow either ceases or decreases episodically during sleep, is crucial to initiate timely interventions and avoid complications. Wearable artificial intelligence (AI), the integ...
PURPOSE: This study aims to develop sleep apnea screening models with overnight SpO2 data, and to investigate the impact of the SpO2 data granularity on model performance.
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome disrupts sleep, destroys the homeostasis of biological systems such as metabolism and the immune system, and reduces learning ability and memory. The existing polysomnography used to measure sleep disorders is execute...
