Brief summary
This study aims to develop a multimodal data-driven model integrating multiple noninvasive physiological signals to assess the severity of pediatric sleep-disordered breathing, using standard clinical sleep study results as the reference.
Detailed description
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.
Interventions
a small device placed on the finger to measure blood oxygen saturation and pulse rate noninvasively
using ballistocardiography for monitoring respiration and heart rate
using millimeter-wave radar technology based on the Doppler effect, the device continuously monitors respiratory-related chest wall movements
