Sleep Report

Description

Sleep Report, Events Sleep Report, and Temporal Links Report

This tool generates three types of reports:

  • Sleep Report

    The distribution of sleep stages across sleep cycles, thirds, and halves of the night. It also highlights the transitions between different sleep stages. To look at the report variables and their definitions, see : Sleep Report Info

  • Events Sleep Report

    A breakdown of selected events based on the report criteria, categorized by sleep stage, cycle, and thirds and halves of the night. Predefined report criteria included in Snooz: Arousals Report, Bruxism Report, PLM Report, Respiratory Events Report, Snoring report. To look at the report variables and their definitions, see : Events Report Info

  • Temporal Links Report:

    The relationship between two selected events within a specified time window, such as the occurrence of event 1 starting before the start of event 2. To look at the report variables and their definitions, see : Temporal links Report Info

Steps

Common settings

Sleep Cycles : define how the sleep cycles are delimited in your study. The “Minimum criteria” is selected by default.

1 - Input Files

Start by opening your PSG files (.edf, .eeg or .sts).

  • The .tsv file is also needed for the EDF format.

  • The .sig file is also needed for Stellate format.

  • The whole NATUS subject folder is also needed for the .eeg format.

2 - Events Report

The annotations included in your accessory files are listed in order to allow you to select groups of events or directly names of events.

Note

It is also possible to “Combine events” to create a new group of events.

An events report must be added to an event group or name

The scrolling menu lists the predefined events report :

  • Arousals Report

  • Bruxism Report

  • PLM Report

  • Respiratory Events Report

  • Snoring report

  • Events report without criteria

The selection Criteria window details the criteria defined for the selected report.

Note

You can also create a new report with your criteria.

Note

By default, only the events reports are generated, but it is possible to generate the list of events included in each report.

3 - Temporal Links

The length of the time window defining a possible link between 2 events is 0.5 s by default.

Check all the temporal links you want to generate a report for. The temporal link must be defined between 2 events type.

Warning

Make sure the “tsv report” option is checked to generate the temporal links reports.

4 - Generate Reports

The “Sleep Reports” are .tsv files. Each row corresponds to a PSG recording and each column to a variable.

Each variable is defined in the _info.tsv file generated with the report, see pages below:
