AI tool for diagnosing sleep apnea in children
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a new AI tool that helps doctors diagnose obstructive sleep apnea in children without needing a full sleep study. It looks at data from simple finger sensors to find sleep apnea faster and more comfortably.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is suspected of having obstructive sleep apnea and has been referred for a sleep study.
- Your child can wear a small sensor on a finger or around a finger without discomfort.
- Your child does not have major physical problems in the upper airway (like a blocked nose or throat).
- Your child does not have an irregular heartbeat or a muscle/nerve disease.
- Your child has not been in the hospital in the past month.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether a special computer model can predict sleep apnea severity using a stethoscope and a fingertip oxygen sensor, instead of a full sleep test. It might help people get faster and easier sleep apnea diagnosis.
This study tests a wearable device that can help monitor breathing and sleep in children. It compares children with sleep apnea to children without sleep apnea using a simple nighttime monitoring approach.
This study tests two wearable sensors that track how hard you breathe while you sleep. It may help diagnose sleep and breathing problems without needing a hospital visit.
This study tests a new computer algorithm (called BodySleep) that analyzes sleep data to help diagnose obstructive sleep apnea in children. It aims to make diagnosis faster and easier for kids who are already scheduled for a sleep study.
This study tests a wearable sleep monitor (WatchPAT 400) in children and teens who are already scheduled for an overnight sleep test. It aims to see if the wearable device can reliably detect sleep problems as an easier alternative.
This trial is testing an under-mattress device called Sleeptracker-AI to see how well it measures heart rate, breathing, and sleep patterns. It may help people with suspected sleep apnoea get easier sleep monitoring at home.
