Real-time Attended Home-polysomnography Through Telematic Data Transmission (sleepbox)

September 6, 2012 updated by: Marie Bruyneel, Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Saint Pierre
The purpose of this study is to develop an efficient home-based polysomnography device, which allows, through GPRS,continuous real-time monitoring from the sleep lab based in the hospital, in order to decrease the failure rate of home-based recordings.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
  • Allocation: N/A
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: telematic attended polysomnography
Portable polysomnograph will be placed at home around 7:00PM. The Sleep Box (wireless monitoring device) will be left near the patient, to allow real-time GPRS transmission of recorded sleep parameters to the sleep lab.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Quality of Polysomnographic Recordings
Time Frame: 1 week
Quality of recordings will be graded according to Redline S et al (SLEEP 1998): Unsatisfactory, poor, fair, good, very good,excellent. Unsatisfactory and poor recordings are considered as failures.
