Watch‐type peripheral arterial tonometry (WP) for home SA testing has demonstrated a high correlation of the apnea‐hypopnea index (AHI) with Polysomnography (PSG), but the evidence of its accuracy in AF patients is not adequate. This study was conducted under a retrospective, single‐center, observational design.

Jun 4, 2024 · Importantly, obstructive sleep apnea is highly prevalent among AF patients (60–90%); therefore, electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis from polysomnography (PSG), a standard diagnostic tool for subjects with suspected sleep apnea, presents a unique opportunity for the early prediction of AF.

Nov 30, 2023 · In addition, new recommendations addressing atrial fibrillation and thromboembolic risk assessment, anticoagulation, left atrial appendage occlusion, atrial fibrillation catheter or surgical ablation, and risk factor modification and atrial fibrillation prevention have been developed.

Sep 1, 2024 · Given the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea among AF patients, electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis from polysomnography (PSG) offers a unique opportunity for early AF prediction. Our aim is to identify individuals at high risk of AF development from single‑lead ECGs during standard PSG.

Feb 21, 2022 · The prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing was determined using polysomnography (Sleep Fairy PSG BAMC PSG machine). Sleep studies were analyzed and scored independently by two experienced polysomnographic technologists.

We investigate whether PSG-based cardiac electrophysiologic indices, heart rate variability (HRV) and atrial ectopy, the latter recognized to predict AF 9, are associated with increased risk of AF development.

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a modifiable risk factor of atrial fibrillation (AF) but is underdiagnosed in these patients due to absence of good OSA screening pathways. Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for diagnosing OSA but …

A study in the December 2020 edition of Nature and Science of Sleep validates the use of WatchPAT against gold standard in-lab polysomnogram (PSG) in the diagnosis of sleep apnea in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).

Given the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea among AF patients, electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis from polysomnography (PSG) offers a unique opportunity for early AF prediction. Our aim is to identify individuals at high risk of AF development from …

Jun 4, 2024 · Our proposed ECG analysis method, utilizing overnight PSG data, shows promise in AF prediction despite a modest precision indicating the presence of false positive cases. This approach could potentially enable low-cost screening …
