Automatic Sleep Staging in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Using Single-Channel Frontal EEG.

ABSTRACT:

Study objectives

Reliable sleep staging is difficult to obtain from home sleep testing for diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), especially when it is self-applied. Hence, the current study aimed to develop a single frontal electroencephalography-based automatic sleep staging system (ASSS).

Methods

The ASSS system was developed on a clinical dataset, with a high percentage of participants with OSA. The F4-M1 signal extracted from 62 participants (62.9% having OSA) was used to build a four-stage classifier. Performance of the ASSS was tested in a holdout set of 58 patients (60.3% having OSA) with epoch-by-epoch and whole-night agreement for sleep staging compared with expert scoring of polysomnography.

Results

Mean all-stage percentage agreement was 75.52% (95% confidence interval, 72.90 to 78.13) (kappa 0.62; 95% confidence interval, 0.58 to 0.65), with mean percentage agreement for wake, light sleep, deep sleep (DS), and rapid eye movement of 78.04%, 70.97%, 83.65%, and 75.00%, respectively. The whole-night agreement was good-excellent (intraclass correlation coefficient, 0.74 to 0.88) for sleep onset latency, wake after sleep onset, total sleep time, and sleep efficiency. Compared to the non-OSA subset, the OSA subset had lower agreement for DS.

Conclusions

Our results indicate that a single-channel F4-M1 based ASSS was sufficient for sleep staging in a population with a high percentage of participants with OSA.

Project description:Study objectivesWe investigated the diagnostic accuracy for the identification of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and its severity of a noninvasive technology based on image processing (SleepWise).MethodsThis is an observational, prospective study to evaluate the degree of agreement between polysomnography (PSG) and SleepWise. We recruited 56 consecutive subjects with suspected OSA who were referred as outpatients to the Sleep Unit of the Hospital Universitari Germans Trias i Pujol (HUGTiP) from January 2013 to January 2014. All patients underwent laboratory PSG and image processing with SleepWise simultaneously the same night. Both PSG and SleepWise analyses were carried independently and blindly.ResultsWe analyzed 50 of the 56 patients recruited. OSA was diagnosed through PSG in a total of 44 patients (88%) with a median apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) of 25.35 (24.9). According to SleepWise, 45 patients (90%) met the criteria for a diagnosis of OSA, with a median AHI of 22.8 (22.03). An analysis of the ability of PSG and SleepWise to classify patients by severity on the basis of their AHI shows that the two diagnostic systems distribute the different groups similarly. According to PSG, 23 patients (46%) had a diagnosis of severe OSA, 11 patients (22%) moderate OSA, and 10 patients (20%) mild OSA. According to SleepWise, 20, 13, and 12 patients (40%, 26%, and 24%, respectively) had a diagnosis of severe, moderate, and mild OSA respectively. For OSA diagnosis, SleepWise was found to have sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 83% in relation to PSG. The positive predictive value was 97% and the negative predictive value was 100%. The Bland-Altman plot comparing the mean AHI values obtained through PSG and SleepWise shows very good agreement between the two diagnostic techniques, with a bias of -3.85, a standard error of 12.18, and a confidence interval of -0.39 to -7.31.ConclusionsSleepWise was reasonably accurate for noninvasive and automatic diagnosis of OSA in outpatients. SleepWise determined the severity of OSA with high reliability. The current study including simultaneous laboratory PSG and SleepWise processing image is proposed as a reasonable validation standard.

Project description:Introduction: Automated sleep staging using deep learning models typically requires training on hundreds of sleep recordings, and pre-training on public databases is therefore common practice. However, suboptimal sleep stage performance may occur from mismatches between source and target datasets, such as differences in population characteristics (e.g., an unrepresented sleep disorder) or sensors (e.g., alternative channel locations for wearable EEG). Methods: We investigated three strategies for training an automated single-channel EEG sleep stager: pre-training (i.e., training on the original source dataset), training-from-scratch (i.e., training on the new target dataset), and fine-tuning (i.e., training on the original source dataset, fine-tuning on the new target dataset). As source dataset, we used the F3-M2 channel of healthy subjects (N = 94). Performance of the different training strategies was evaluated using Cohen's Kappa (κ) in eight smaller target datasets consisting of healthy subjects (N = 60), patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA, N = 60), insomnia (N = 60), and REM sleep behavioral disorder (RBD, N = 22), combined with two EEG channels, F3-M2 and F3-F4. Results: No differences in performance between the training strategies was observed in the age-matched F3-M2 datasets, with an average performance across strategies of κ = .83 in healthy, κ = .77 in insomnia, and κ = .74 in OSA subjects. However, in the RBD set, where data availability was limited, fine-tuning was the preferred method (κ = .67), with an average increase in κ of .15 to pre-training and training-from-scratch. In the presence of channel mismatches, targeted training is required, either through training-from-scratch or fine-tuning, increasing performance with κ = .17 on average. Discussion: We found that, when channel and/or population mismatches cause suboptimal sleep staging performance, a fine-tuning approach can yield similar to superior performance compared to building a model from scratch, while requiring a smaller sample size. In contrast to insomnia and OSA, RBD data contains characteristics, either inherent to the pathology or age-related, which apparently demand targeted training.
