Diagnostic Value of PVT for Severe Sleep Inertia in Idiopathic Hypersomnia. ABSTRACT Sleep inertia impairs performance upon awakening and may be assessed using the psychomotor vigilance task (PVT). This study aimed to determine optimal PVT lapse cut‐offs at awakening to objectively measure sleep inertia by comparing patients with idiopathic hypersomnia

What Do Patient‐Reported Sleep Measures Assess? A Content Analysis
ABSTRACT Current systematic review analysed the content of generic patient‐reported sleep measures (PRSMs) using (1) the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and (2) semantic analysis. A literature search identified 27 PRSMs applicable across multiple sleep disorders.

Thoracoabdominal Asynchrony in Healthy Children
ABSTRACT Measuring asynchrony between the thorax and abdomen during sleep provides information about inspiratory effort and upper airway obstruction in children, aiding in the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This study aimed to define a normative range for thoracoabdominal asynchrony (TAA) in healthy children by studying polysomnographies ...

Estimation of Total Sleep Time From Respiratory Event Intervals in Sleep Disordered Breathing
ABSTRACT The correct identification of respiratory events and estimation of total sleep time (TST), done in a sleep clinic with polysomnography (PSG), are central elements in the diagnostic process of sleep‐disordered breathing and in the quantification of its severity with the apnoea‐hypopnea index (AHI). However, total sleep time may not be available

ABSTRACT Accurate peripheral blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) measurements are critical for evaluating sleep patients, particularly those with frequent desaturations due to pathological breathing events. We compared synchronised SpO2 measurements obtained from three anatomical sites (finger, forehead and toe) in patients undergoing routine Type 1 ...

ABSTRACT Although many studies have reported the presence of daytime sleepiness in Parkinson's disease (PD), either a weak or no association has been found between self‐reported and current objective measures of daytime sleepiness in this population. Changes in resting state quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) have been associated with increased
