چکیده

STUDY OBJECTIVES To develop and validate a novel non-contact system for whole-night sleep evaluation using breathing sounds analysis (BSA). DESIGN Whole-night breathing sounds (using ambient microphone) and polysomnography (PSG) were simultaneously collected at a sleep laboratory (mean recording time 7.1 hours). A set of acoustic features quantifying breathing pattern were developed to distinguish between sleep and wake epochs (30 sec segments). Epochs (n = 59,108 design study and n = 68,560 validation study) were classified using AdaBoost classifier and validated epoch-by-epoch for sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, accuracy, and Cohen's kappa. Sleep quality parameters were calculated based on the sleep/wake classifications and compared with PSG for validity. SETTING University affiliated sleep-wake disorder center and biomedical signal processing laboratory. PATIENTS One hundred and fifty patients (age 54.0±14.8 years, BMI 31.6±5.5 kg/m2, m/f 97/53) referred for PSG were prospectively and consecutively recruited. The system was trained (design study) on 80 subjects; validation study was blindly performed on the additional 70 subjects. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS Epoch-by-epoch accuracy rate for the validation study was 83.3% with sensitivity of 92.2% (sleep as sleep), specificity of 56.6% (awake as awake), and Cohen's kappa of 0.508. Comparing sleep quality parameters of BSA and PSG demonstrate average error of sleep latency, total sleep time, wake after sleep onset, and sleep efficiency of 16.6 min, 35.8 min, and 29.6 min, and 8%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This study provides evidence that sleep-wake activity and sleep quality parameters can be reliably estimated solely using breathing sound analysis. This study highlights the potential of this innovative approach to measure sleep in research and clinical circumstances.

Automatic Detection of Whole Night Snoring Events Using Non-Contact Microphone

OBJECTIVE Although awareness of sleep disorders is increasing, limited information is available on whole night detection of snoring. Our study aimed to develop and validate a robust, high performance, and sensitive whole-night snore detector based on non-contact technology. DESIGN Sounds during polysomnography (PSG) were recorded using a directional condenser microphone placed 1 m above the b...

Detection of sleep disordered breathing severity using acoustic biomarker and machine learning techniques

PURPOSE Breathing sounds during sleep are altered and characterized by various acoustic specificities in patients with sleep disordered breathing (SDB). This study aimed to identify acoustic biomarkers indicative of the severity of SDB by analyzing the breathing sounds collected from a large number of subjects during entire overnight sleep. METHODS The participants were patients who presented...

Efficient snoring and breathing detection based on sub-band spectral statistics.

Snoring, a common symptom in the general population may indicate the presence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In order to detect snoring events in sleep sound recordings, a novel method was proposed in this paper. The proposed method operates by analyzing the acoustic characteristics of the snoring sounds. Based on these acoustic properties, the feature vectors are obtained using the mean and...

A Software System for Sleep and Snoring Analsis

Snoring is caused by the vibration of some of the tissues in the human upper airway. It has been reported in the literature as a risk factor of diseases such as obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and other breathing abnormalities during sleep. Several methods are available for the treatment of snoring, depending on the location of pathology such as “uvulopalatopharyngoplasty” (UPPP) for uv...

Incidence of perioperative sleep-disordered breathing in patients undergoing major surgery: a prospective cohort study

BACKGROUND Major surgery might have a modulating effect on nocturnal breathing patterns. The incidence and course of perioperative sleep-disordered breathing in individuals without a previous diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea has not been investigated sufficiently so far. METHODS In this study, polygraphic recordings have been obtained from 37 inpatients without a diagnosis of obstructive ...
