Validation a Portable Monitoring Device for Sleep Apnea Diagnosis in a Population Based Cohort Using Synchronized Home Polysomnography

Abstract

The WP_100 was reasonably accurate for unattended home diagnosis of OSA in a population sample not preselected for OSA symptoms. The current design, including simultaneous home PSG recordings in population-based cohorts, is proposed as a reasonable validation standard for assessment of simplified recording tools for OSA diagnosis.
