Abstract:
[ABSTRACT]OBJECTIVETo evaluate the accuracy of the watch peripheral arterial tone (Watch-PAT) in the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).METHODSA total of 51 outpatients who had chief complaint of sleep snoring were carried out Watch-PAT test and polysomnography (PSG) simultaneously, and the results were statistically compared.RESULTSFifty one patients, consisted of 44 males and 7 females, had the mean age of (45.7±12.0) years (±s) and the mean body mass index of (28.8±3.6) kg/m2.The mean PSG apnea hypopnea index (AHI) was (45.69±12.02) events per hour, and mean Watch-PAT AHI was (35.49±24.49) events per hour. Significant correlation has been detected between Watch-PAT AHI and PSG AHI (r=0.878,P<0.001). The sensitivity and specificity of Watch-PAT were 97.73% and 85.71%, when PSG-AHI≥5/h events per hour was setting as the threshold value to diagnose OSAHS. The diagnostic efficiency of Watch-PAT has been tested by ROC curve, and the area under the curve approached to 0.997.CONCLUSIONThe Watch-PAT was proved as a portable and reliable device of screening patients who were suspected OSAHS.
