About this study

Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea may affect growth, development, cognitive function, and overall health. Although polysomnography is commonly used for clinical assessment, its application may be limited by time, cost, and accessibility. Recent advances in noninvasive monitoring technologies have provided new possibilities for sleep-related assessment. This study will collect and integrate multiple physiological signals from pediatric participants undergoing routine sleep examinations and to develop a data-driven model for evaluating sleep-related respiratory conditions. Clinical examination results will be used as the reference for model development and validation. The findings of this study are expected to support the development of a convenient and noninvasive approach for pediatric sleep assessment and may provide a reference for future clinical and home-based applications.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Individuals with clinical suspicion of obstructive sleep apnea who are referred for polysomnography

Exclusion criteria

  • Intolerance to a fingertip or wrap-around pulse oximeter
  • Presence of significant structural abnormalities of the upper airway
  • Cardiac arrhythmia
  • Neuromuscular disease
  • Hospitalization within the previous one month

Treatment and study plan

fingertip pulse oximeter

Device

a small device placed on the finger to measure blood oxygen saturation and pulse rate noninvasively

pressure-sensing mattresses

Device

using ballistocardiography for monitoring respiration and heart rate

millimeter-wave radar

Device

using millimeter-wave radar technology based on the Doppler effect, the device continuously monitors respiratory-related chest wall movements

Primary outcomes

  1. the correlation among the apnea-hypopnea index, millimeter-wave radar signals, and ballistocardiography waveforms

    Time frame: one night
