Filter by:The goal of this pilot observational study is to assess the ability of continuous 'home' EEG to accurately diagnose Narcolepsy in children and young people with hypersomnia. The main question[s]it aims to answer are: - can ambulatory home monitoring using a Dreem headband with a 'life as usual' unrestricted protocol allow accurate diagnosis of Narcolepsy, compared to gold standard in-patient PSG and MSLT - which EEG derived sleep parameters and study duration yield most diagnostic accuracy Participants undergoing investigation for hypersomnia will additionally be asked to wear a Dream Headband at night for weeknights, then continuously for 48 hours over the weekend. The data from the headband will then be analysed to see if it can predict the results of the polysomnography and MSLT that form routine clinical care.
The central hypothesis is that home EEG monitoring (Dream 3 wearable) can be feasibly utilized for data capture of continuous sleep and wake measurements for the diagnostic evaluation and treatment monitoring of hypersomnia.
The goal of the study is to test the role of telemedicine combined with humidification to check CPAP treatment during the first month to improve adherence and reduce unsolved side effects of therapy.
