Psychomotor Vigilance Performance in Participants with Excessive Daytime Sleepiness in Obstructive Sleep Apnea or Narcolepsy Compared with  SAFTE-FAST Model Predictions

ConclusionThis study represents a novel application of the SAFTE biomathematical model to approximate healthy controls in sleep disorder research and provides valuable lessons that may optimize future research. Future studies should perform a priori power analyses for model-tested outcomes and use sleep measures that capture sleep fragmentation characteristic of sleep disorders for sleep input (e.g., total sleep time rather than time in bed).Trial RegistrationNCT02806895, EudraCT 2015-003930-28: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Crossover On-Road Driving Study Assessing the Effect of JZP-110 on Driving Performance in Subjects With Excessive Sleepiness Due to Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
