Ear-EEG for sleep assessment: a comparison with actigraphy and PSG.

CONCLUSION: A statistically significant improvement in both accuracy and kappa was observed from single-ear to single-ear with ipsilateral mastoid, and from single-ear with ipsilateral mastoid to cross-ear configurations for both two and five-sleep stage classification. In terms of sleep metrics, the results were more heterogeneous, but in general, actigraphy and single-ear with ipsilateral mastoid configuration were better than the single-ear configuration; and the cross-ear configuration was consistently better than both the actigraphy device and the single-ear configuration.
