Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The feasibility of using an Ambulatory Monitoring System (AMS) which consists of a chest patch and pulse oximeter to detect overnight >3 % desaturations compared to clinical standard respiratory polygraphy (RP). This will be assessed on night 1 of the study. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. The feasibility of using an AMS (chest patch and pulse oximeter) to detect apnoeas and hypopnoeas compared to clinical standard RP, assessed on night 1 of the study. 2. The feasibility and patient experience of using an AMS, assessed on day 5-7 of the study, at the final study visit. Exploratory objectives: 1. Sleep metrics (apnoea-hypopnoea index, oxygen desaturations index and burden) of AMS and RP assessed on night 1 of the study. 2. Night-to-night variability of sleep apnoea severity measured by AMS on nights 1-5 of the study (all nights up to the final study visit, visit 3) | — |
