Sleep scoring is an important step for the detection of sleep disorders and usually performed by visual analysis. Since manual time consuming, machine-learning based approaches have been proposed. Though efficient, these algorithms are black-box in nature difficult to interpret clinicians. In this paper, we propose a deep learning architecture multi-modal scoring, investigate model's decision making process, compare reasoning with annotation guidelines AASM manual. Our architecture, called...

Over and under-sedation are common in critically ill patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit. Clinical assessments provide limited time resolution based on behavior rather than brain itself. Existing monitors have been developed primarily for non-ICU settings. Here, we use a clinical dataset from 154 ICU whom Richmond Agitation-Sedation Score is assessed about every 2 hours. We develop recurrent neural network (RNN) model discriminate between deep vs. no sedation, trained end-to-end raw...

We developed a simple and fully automated method for detecting artifacts in the R-R interval (RRI) time series of ECG that is tailored to intensive care unit (ICU) setting. From recordings 50 adult ICU-subjects we selected 60 epochs with valid R-peak detections containing leading missed or false positive detections. Next, calculated absolute value difference between two adjacent RRIs (adRRI), obtained empirical probability distributions adRRI values R-peaks artifacts. these, an optimal...
