Comparing computer vs human sleep study scoring in adults
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of scoring a sleep study (polysomnography) — one done by a computer and one by a human expert — to see which is more accurate for diagnosing sleep apnea in adults. If you have symptoms of sleep apnea, you may join to help improve how it's detected.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older
- You must have symptoms that suggest sleep apnea, like loud snoring, gasping, or daytime sleepiness, and have had a positive screening questionnaire
- You must be able to understand and sign a consent form
- You must not have skin problems that prevent attaching monitoring sensors
- You must be able to stop taking strong sedatives or opioids before the study (or have a wash-out period)

This study compares two different types of positive airway pressure (PAP) machines to see which one you prefer and are more likely to use consistently. It aims to find the best option for you and improve your sleep apnea treatment.
This study tests whether new technologies, like a small wearable sensor, can accurately diagnose sleep apnea compared with the standard overnight sleep test. It may help people get easier, more convenient sleep apnea diagnosis.
This study compares two types of breathing therapy for people with sleep apnea to see which is more comfortable. If you are newly diagnosed and haven't tried treatment yet, this could help you find a more comfortable option.
This study uses sound recordings to detect sleep apnea while you are awake and during sleep, which could offer a simpler alternative to traditional sleep studies. If you are suspected of having sleep apnea, this trial may help improve diagnosis and monitoring.
This study looks at different types of sleep apnea to find the best treatment for each person. If you are newly diagnosed and haven't tried CPAP yet, your participation could help doctors personalize therapy for better results.
This study compares two common treatments for moderate to severe sleep apnea: a device that keeps your airway open during sleep and a machine that delivers air pressure. It aims to see which works better for people like you.
