Validation of an automated wireless system to monitor sleep in healthy adults.
The aim of this study was to evaluate a novel wireless system (the Zeo) that does not require skilled preparation for the automatic collection and scoring of human sleep.
Some data
- The Zeo agreement with each of the two PSG scores for sleep stages was 75.8 and 74.7%, respectively.
- The Zeo agreement with each of the two PSG scores for sleep/wakefulness was 92.6 and 91.1%,
- Actigraphy agreement with PSG was 86.3 and 85.7%.
- The PSG scorers' agreement with each other for sleep stages was 83.2%, and 95.8%.

PSG = Polysomnography - which uses multiple electrodes on the scalp, face and chin (for sleep scoring); the gold standard is manual scoring.
