A comparison of polysomnography and the SleepStrip in the diagnosis of OSA
Abstract
Objective: To investigate the role of a portable screening device (SleepStrip) in the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Methods and Materials: Prospective, nonrandomized double‐blinded single cohort study at an academic health center. Patients with suspected OSA scheduled for an attended overnight Level I polysomnogram (PSG) and who consented to participate in the study wore the SleepStrip device at home the night after the PSG. The apnea‐hypopnea index (AHI) determined by PSG was compared with the results of the SleepStrip recording. Results: Thirty‐seven patients with a mean age of 52.1 ± 12.2 years and mean body mass index of 35.7 ± 5.2 participated in the study. The overall agreement between the AHI and the SleepStrip results using Cohen's Kappa value was 0.139 (P = 0.19). The sensitivity and specificity of the SleepStrip for diagnosing severe OSA when the AHI was >40 were 33.3% and 95% (P = 0.05). When the AHI was >25, the SleepStrip sensitivity and specificity were 43.8% and 81.3% (P = 0.26). The sensitivity and specificity of the SleepStrip for diagnosing OSA in patients with an AHI >15 were 54.6% and 70%, respectively (P = 0.26). Conclusion: The SleepStrip has a low correlation with the AHI as measured by PSG. Further studies are needed before this device can be recommended as a screening tool for the diagnosis of OSA.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
