Self-Applied Home Sleep Recordings

Sleep disorders form a massive global health burden and there is an increasing need for simple and cost-efficient sleep recording devices. Recent machine learning –based approaches have already achieved scoring accuracy of sleep recordings on par with manual scoring, even with reduced recording montages. Simple and inexpensive monitoring over multiple consecutive nights with automatic analysis could be the answer to overcome the substantial economic burden caused by poor sleep and enable more efficient initial diagnosis, treatment planning, and follow-up monitoring for individuals suffering from sleep disorders.
