    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: Due to the lack of an objective population-based screening tool for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a large number of patients with potential OSA have not been identified in the general population. Our study compared an objective wearable sleep monitoring device with polysomnography (PSG) to provide a reference for OSA screening in a large population. METHODS: Using a self-control method, patients admitted to our sleep center from July 2020 to March 2021 were selected for overnight PSG and wearable intelligent sleep monitor (WISM) at the same time. The sensitivity and specificity of the device for the diagnosis of OSA were evaluated. RESULTS: A total of 196 participants (mean age: 45.1 ± 12.3 years [18-80 years]; 168 men [86%]) completed both PSG and WISM monitoring. Using an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 5 events/h as the diagnostic criterion, the sensitivity, specificity, kappa value, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the WISM for OSA diagnosis were 93%, 77%, 0.6, and 0.95, respectively. Using an AHI ≥ 15 events/h as the diagnostic criterion for moderate-to-severe OSA, these values were 92%, 89%, 0.8, and 0.95, respectively. The mean difference in the AHI between PSG and the artificial intelligence oxygen desaturation index from the WISM was 6.8 events/h (95% confidence interval: - 13.1 to 26.7). CONCLUSION: Compared with the PSG, WISM exhibits good sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of OSA. This small, simple, and easy-to-use device is more suitable for OSA screening in a large population because of its single-step application procedure.
