Automatic detection of cortical arousals in sleep and their contribution to daytime sleepiness.

CONCLUSIONS: The MAD performed better or comparable to human expert scorers. The MAD-predicted arousals were shown to be significant predictors of MSL. SIGNIFICANCE: This study validates a fully automatic method for scoring arousals in PSGs. PMID: 32299002 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
