Comparative study of a wearable intelligent sleep monitor and polysomnography monitor for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Due to the lack of an objective population-based screening tool for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a large number of patients with potential OSA have not been identified in the general population. Our study compared an objective wearable sleep monitoring device with polysomnography (PSG) to provide a reference for OSA screening in a large population.

Methods

Using a self-control method, patients admitted to our sleep center from July 2020 to March 2021 were selected for overnight PSG and wearable intelligent sleep monitor (WISM) at the same time. The sensitivity and specificity of the device for the diagnosis of OSA were evaluated.

Results

A total of 196 participants (mean age: 45.1 ± 12.3 years [18-80 years]; 168 men [86%]) completed both PSG and WISM monitor
