Heart rate is well-known to be modulated by sleep stages. If clinically useful sleep scoring can be performed using only cardiac rhythms, then existing medical and consumer-grade devices that can measure heart rate can enable low-cost sleep evaluations.
We trained a neural network which uses dilated convolutional blocks to learn both local and long range features of heart rate extracted from ECG R-wave timing to predict for every non-overlapping 30s epoch of the input the probabilities of the epoch being in one of four classes—wake, light sleep, deep sleep or REM. The largest probability is chosen as the network’s class prediction and used to form the hypnogram. We used the Sleep Heart Health Study (SHHS) and Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis Study (MESA) and Physionet Computing in Cardiology (CinC) dataset (over 10000 nights) for training and evaluation. Then we deployed the algorithm on PPG based heart rate measured by a wrist-worn device worn by subjects in a free-living setting.
On the held out test SHHS dataset (800 nights, 561 subjects), the overall 4-class staging accuracy was 77% and Cohen’s kappa was 0.66. On the CinC dataset (993 nights, 993 subjects), the overall 4 class accuracy was 72% and Cohen’s kappa was 0.55. The study on free-living subjects is underway and these novel results will be collated and presented upon completion.
We hope these results build more trust in automated heart rate based sleep staging and encourage further research into its clinical application in screening and diagnosis of sleep disorders. Low cost, high efficacy devices which can be used in longitudinal studies can lead to breakthroughs in clinical applications of sleep staging for early diagnosis of chronic conditions and novel treatment endpoints.
We recently published the training/testing of the algorithm as well a population level analysis showing differences in predicted sleep stages between disease cohorts. The article was published in NPJ Digital Medicine in Aug 2020. The study on free living subjects is currently underway and these new results will be presented at the sleep conference. Preliminary results indicate high concordance with our published results.
