ApSense: Data-driven Algorithm in PPG-based Sleep Apnea Sensing [PDF]

2024 IEEE Internet of Things Journal, vol. 11, no. 20, pp. 33915-33926, 2023
Detecting obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is essential for diagnosing and managing sleep health. Traditionally, this involves clinical settings with hardly accessible processes. We propose that the automated detection of OSA events is achievable using features extracted from fingertip photoplethysmography (PPG) signals combined with modern deep learning (

Lifestyle Behaviour and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA): An Association Study Among Young Adults

National Journal of Community Medicine, 2022
Introduction: Lifestyle changes like low physical activity, smoking and consumption of alcohol have been reported to have an impact on Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Smoking was found to be associated with nocturnal hypoxemia and disturbed sleep.

CPAP for Prevention of Cardiovascular Events in Obstructive Sleep Apnea.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2016
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events; whether treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) prevents major cardiovascular events is uncertain.

The comparison of two different mandibular positions for oral appliance therapy in patients with obstructive sleep apnea

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1567-1574, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background An oral appliance (OA) can alleviate upper airway obstruction by pulling the mandible forward during sleep. While a large mandibular advancement with an OA decreases the number of apnea and hypopnea events, long‐term use may cause side effects, such as toothache, stiffness, and pain in the temporomandibular joint.

Automatic Home-based Screening of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Using Single Channel Electrocardiogram and SPO2 Signals [PDF]

International Journal of Artificial Intelligence & Applications (IJAIA), Vol.12, No.6, November 2021, 2021
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most widespread respiratory diseases today. Complete or relative breathing cessations due to upper airway subsidence during sleep is OSA. It has confirmed potential influence on Covid-19 hospitalization and mortality, and is strongly associated with major comorbidities of severe Covid-19 infection.

Craniofacial morphology in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: cephalometric evaluation

Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2022
Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea is characterized by a reduced airflow through the upper airways during sleep. Two forms of obstructive sleep apnea are described: the central form and the obstructive form.

A negative expiratory pressure test during wakefulness for evaluating the risk of obstructive sleep apnea in patients referred for sleep studies

Clinics, 2011
OBJECTIVE: Obstructive sleep apnea is characterized by increased upper airway collapsibility during sleep. The present study investigated the use of the negative expiratory pressure test as a method to rule out obstructive sleep apnea.
