[PMID: 36014257 PMCID: PMC9412310 DOI: 10.3390/mi13081335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2022] [Revised: 08/15/2022] [Accepted: 08/16/2022] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Sleep is crucial for human health from metabolic, mental, emotional, and social points of view; obtaining good sleep in terms of quality and duration is fundamental for maintaining a good life quality. Over the years, several systems have been proposed in the scientific literature and on the market to derive metrics used to quantify sleep quality as well as detect sleep disturbances and disorders. In this field, wearable systems have an important role in the discreet, accurate, and long-term detection of biophysical markers useful to determine sleep quality. This paper presents the current state-of-the-art wearable systems and software tools for sleep staging and detecting sleep disorders and dysfunctions. At first, the paper discusses sleep's functions and the importance of monitoring sleep to detect eventual sleep disturbance and disorders. Afterward, an overview of prototype and commercial headband-like wearable devices to monitor sleep is presented, both reported in the scientific literature and on the market, allowing unobtrusive and accurate detection of sleep quality markers. Furthermore, a survey of scientific works related the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on sleep functions, attributable to both infection and lifestyle changes. In addition, a survey of algorithms for sleep staging and detecting sleep disorders is introduced based on an analysis of single or multiple biosignals (EEG-electroencephalography, ECG-electrocardiography, EMG-electromyography, EOG-electrooculography, etc.). Lastly, comparative analyses and insights are provided to determine the future trends related to sleep monitoring systems.

Fonseca P, van Gilst MM, Radha M, Ross M, Moreau A, Cerny A, Anderer P, Long X, van Dijk JP, Overeem S. Automatic sleep staging using heart rate variability, body movements, and recurrent neural networks in a sleep disordered population. Sleep 2021; 43:5811423. [PMID: 32249911 DOI: 10.1093/sleep/zsaa048] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2019] [Revised: 03/09/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To validate a previously developed sleep staging algorithm using heart rate variability (HRV) and body movements in an independent broad cohort of unselected sleep disordered patients. METHODS We applied a previously designed algorithm for automatic sleep staging using long short-term memory recurrent neural networks to model sleep architecture. The classifier uses 132 HRV features computed from electrocardiography and activity counts from accelerometry. We retrained our algorithm using two public datasets containing both healthy sleepers and sleep disordered patients. We then tested the performance of the algorithm on an independent hold-out validation set of sleep recordings from a wide range of sleep disorders collected in a tertiary sleep medicine center. RESULTS The classifier achieved substantial agreement on four-class sleep staging (wake/N1-N2/N3/rapid eye movement [REM]), with an average κ of 0.60 and accuracy of 75.9%. The performance of the sleep staging algorithm was significantly higher in insomnia patients (κ = 0.62, accuracy = 77.3%). Only in REM parasomnias, the performance was significantly lower (κ = 0.47, accuracy = 70.5%). For two-class wake/sleep classification, the classifier achieved a κ of 0.65, with a sensitivity (to wake) of 72.9% and specificity of 94.0%. CONCLUSIONS This study shows that the combination of HRV, body movements, and a state-of-the-art deep neural network can reach substantial agreement in automatic sleep staging compared with polysomnography, even in patients suffering from a multitude of sleep disorders. The physiological signals required can be obtained in various ways, including non-obtrusive wrist-worn sensors, opening up new avenues for clinical diagnostics.

Abstract
Over the last decade there has been high interest in home sleep monitoring among research community and society. Smartphone-based sleep monitoring seems to be especially attractive. However, smartphone should be able to register physiological processes for that, such as breathing or heartbeats. In this study, we tried to detect breathing based on the analysis of channel state information (CSI) of Wi-Fi connection between a smartphone and an access point. We collected data of 5 subjects with different body mass index (17-33) in base sleep postures: prone, supine, and side. The obtained CSI-based respiratory signal was compared with ground truth from a contact belt sensor. The mean correlation coefficient between the signals of 0.85 was achieved. The mean absolute difference between respiratory rates (breaths per epoch) is 0.39. The results show that it is possible to use smartphones without additional sensors for registering breathing based on CSI and potentially for sleep monitoring.

Abstract
Automated sleep stage classification using heart rate variability (HRV) may provide an ergonomic and low-cost alternative to gold standard polysomnography, creating possibilities for unobtrusive home-based sleep monitoring. Current methods however are limited in their ability to take into account long-term sleep architectural patterns. A long short-term memory (LSTM) network is proposed as a solution to model long-term cardiac sleep architecture information and validated on a comprehensive data set (292 participants, 584 nights, 541.214 annotated 30 s sleep segments) comprising a wide range of ages and pathological profiles, annotated according to the Rechtschaffen and Kales (R&K) annotation standard. It is shown that the model outperforms state-of-the-art approaches which were often limited to non-temporal or short-term recurrent classifiers. The model achieves a Cohen's k of 0.61 ± 0.15 and accuracy of 77.00 ± 8.90% across the entire database. Further analysis revealed that the performance for individuals aged 50 years and older may decline. These results demonstrate the merit of deep temporal modelling using a diverse data set and advance the state-of-the-art for HRV-based sleep stage classification. Further research is warranted into individuals over the age of 50 as performance tends to worsen in this sub-population.
