“Sleep Profiler includes automated sleep staging, an important feature validated in a recent peer-reviewed study,” stated Daniel J. Levendowski, President and principal investigator of the study. “Results showed the Sleep Profiler accuracy in detection of slow-wave-sleep (SWS) and rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep was the same as manual scorers from different sleep laboratories.” Sleep Profiler measures sleep duration and sleep efficiency, patterns and density of SWS and REM, cortical, sympathetic and behavior arousals, and frequency and intensity of snoring.
