About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Sleep Apnea focused on measuring artificial neural network

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 75 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Must be an adult (≥18 years old)
  • Must have symptoms suggestive of OSA, and be considered for sleep study by the sleep specialist provider.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnancy or breast feeding
  • Patients with severe congestive heart failure (eg, NYHA Class IV, ejection fraction < 35%).
  • Patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis
  • Patients with CVA, Parkinson, neuromuscular degenerative disease.
  • Patient on narcotics.
  • Patients with severe lung disease requiring oxygen at night and/or during the day.
  • Patient with predominant insomnia or sleep hygiene problems, and who are not considered for PSG by the sleep specialist.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The investigators have developed a simple, accurate, and a point-of-care, computer-based clinical decision support system (CDSS) not only to detect the presence of sleep apnea but also to predict its severity. The CDSS is based on deploying an artificial neural network (ANN) derived from anthropomorphic and clinical characteristics. The investigators hypothesize that patients with severe OSA defined as AHI≥30 can be diagnosed with the use of ANN without undergoing a sleep study, and that empiric management with auto-CPAP has similar outcomes to those who undergo a formal sleep study.
