Sleep EEG-Based Approach to Detect Mild Cognitive Impairment.

ABSTRACT: Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is an early stage of dementia, which may lead to Alzheimer's disease (AD) in older adults. Therefore, early detection of MCI and implementation of treatment and intervention can effectively slow down or even inhibit the progression of the disease, thus minimizing the risk of AD. Currently, we know that published work relies on an analysis of awake EEG recordings. However, recent studies have suggested that changes in the structure of sleep may lead to cognitive decline. In this work, we propose a sleep EEG-based method for MCI detection, extracting specific features of sleep to characterize neuroregulatory deficit emergent with MCI. This study analyzed the EEGs of 40 subjects (20 MCI, 20 HC) with the developed algorithm. We extracted sleep slow waves and spi
