SleepGen 3.0 Illustrations
Once a sleep record has been scored by traditional methods, the data is entered into SleepGen and analysis of sleep variables is performed automatically. A well set out, final report, suitable for forwarding to a referring physician, is produced. The original data is stored for future retrieval. Normal, age-matched, control sleep data is included in the final report.
SleepGen analyzes data and produces reports for both the all-night polysomnogram (PSG) and the daytime Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT).
The SleepGen program allows the entry of sleep stages, apneas - both obstructive and central, hypopneas, periodic leg movements, arousals, and oxygen saturation measures. It allows for the use of the Rechtschaffen and Kales sleep staging method. For rapid and accurate analysis of sleep apnea records SleepGen also can utilize the T-Sleep Method of scoring breathing-disordered sleep. Full instructions and references to the T-sleep method of scoring sleep disturbed by breathing events are included in the program. Oxygen saturation data, obtained by oximetry can be included in the report.
Pre-programmed comments about PSG and MSLT studies are included so the scoring technician can incorporate these in the final report without having to worry about spelling errors or composition.
