STUDY OBJECTIVES: Portable devices for home sleep apnea testing are often limited by their inability to discriminate sleep/wake status, possibly resulting in underestimations. Tracheal sound (TS), which can be visualized as a spectrogram, carries inf...
BACKGROUND: The use of artificial intelligence, including machine learning, is increasing in medicine. Use of machine learning is rising in the prediction of patient outcomes. Machine learning may also be able to enhance and augment anesthesia clinic...
