Case comparison of sleep features from ear-EEG and scalp-EEG

BACKGROUND: We investigate the potential usability of a novel in-the-ear electroencephalography recording device for sleep staging. METHODS: In one healthy subject we compare simultaneous earelectroencephalography to standard scalp EEG visually and using power spectrograms. Hypnograms independently...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: We investigate the potential usability of a novel in-the-ear electroencephalography recording device for sleep staging. METHODS: In one healthy subject we compare simultaneous earelectroencephalography to standard scalp EEG visually and using power spectrograms. Hypnograms independently derived from the records are compared. RESULTS: We find that alpha activity, K complexes, sleep spindles and slow wave sleep can be visually distinguished using earelectroencephalography. Spectral peaks are shared between the two records. Hypnograms are 90.9% similar. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that ear-electroencephalography can be used for sleep staging.
