Split-night versus full-night studies for sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome.
Investigation and treatment of sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome (SAHS) is placing increasing demands on healthcare resources. This workload may be reduced by using split-night studies instead of the standard full-nights of diagnostic polysomnography and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) titration. Split-night studies involve polysomnography in the first half of the night followed, if th...
متن کاملCPAP titration for sleep apnea using a split-night protocol.
We studied 107 patients with sleep-disordered breathing to confirm the effectiveness of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) titration using a split-night protocol. Patients spent two consecutive nights in our laboratory with complete polysomnography. On the first night, we applied a split-night protocol; the first half of the night was used as a baseline (B), and after a diagnosis was ma...
متن کاملQRS artifact elimination on full night sleep EEG.
Spectral analysis is now a standard procedure for analyzing the electroencephalograms (EEG) obtained by polysomnographic recordings. These numerical methods assume an artifact-free EEG since artifacts create spurious spectral components. Our aim was the development of a QRS artifact removal technique that might be applied to full night EEG with a minimal human intervention. This technique shoul...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of split-night polysomnography and home studies in the evaluation of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome
Dates to which data relate The effectiveness data used to populate the model came from studies published between 1984 and 2003. The resource use data were derived from studies published between 1990 and 2003 and were augmented by authors' assumptions. The cost data were derived from official sources (Medicare Fee Schedule reimbursement rates) and referred to the year 2004. All costs were report...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of split-night polysomnography and home studies in the evaluation of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
STUDY OBJECTIVES Split-night polysomnography (PSG) and unattended home sleep studies have come into use as less-expensive tests for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, but their impact on cost-effectiveness of the overall evaluation and treatment is unknown. We compared the cost-effectiveness of evaluations that employ these 2 procedures with a conventional approach using full-night PSG. METHOD...
