Evaluating Sleep Quality With Emerging Technologies

Patients will complete four questionnaires (STOP-BANG, NOSE Score, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and PROMIS Sleep Disturbance Questionnaire), and then wear the Belun Ring for 7 consecutive nights and use the Sleep Cycle App for seven consecutive nights. Patients also will complete a sleep tracking journal. Data points collected by the Belun Ring will include start time, end time, total recording time, oxygen desaturation index, total minutes when spO2 higher than 90%, minimum spO2 percentage, percent of time below 90% O2 saturation, mean spO2, sleep efficiency, bAHI, REM sleep (%), mean pulse rate, and total sleep time. The data collected by the Sleep Cycle will include time in bed, time asleep, minutes snoring, sleep regularity, and sleep quality. The Sleep Cycle app and the Belun Ring will be used used simultaneously. Ideally, all seven night of the week will have data collected. If the patient skips a night of data collection, they will be encouraged to continue the study regardless. Microsoft Excel will be used for data analysis. The Jarque Bera test will be used to test for the normality of data distribution. Descriptive statistics will be calculated for each category of data from the questionnaires, Belun Ring, and Sleep Cycle app. Correlation analyses will also be performed between all categories of data. One-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) tests will be used to assess whether there are significant differences in the data collected each day of the week for the Belun Ring and Sleep Cycle app, at the p=0.05 level of statistical significance. One-way T-tests will be used to compare data between subjects with bAHI less than 10 and bAHI higher than 10.
