Real-time Attended Home-polysomnography Through Telematic Data Transmission

The purpose of this study is to develop an efficient home-based polysomnography device, which allows, through GPRS,continuous real-time monitoring from the sleep lab based in the hospital, in order to decrease the failure rate of home-based recordings.

Treatment and study plan

polysomnograph Dream and Sleep Box

Device

Portable polysomnograph will be placed at home around 7:00PM. The Sleep Box (wireless monitoring device) will be left near the patient, to allow real-time GPRS transmission of recorded sleep parameters to the sleep lab.

Primary outcomes

Quality of Polysomnographic Recordings

Time frame: 1 week

Quality of recordings will be graded according to Redline S et al (SLEEP 1998): Unsatisfactory, poor, fair, good, very good,excellent. Unsatisfactory and poor recordings are considered as failures.
