Artificial Intelligence Could Help Curb Sleep Disorders

Artificial intelligence has already proved its potential in diverse areas, with performing tedious, mundane tasks in a complex environment, enabling businesses to drive efficiency and more. Today's routine lives are totally impacted by the technology as it provides people a different capability to do their works. AI even offers healthcare professionals the ability to perform crucial treatment with ease. Now the technology could be leveraged to improve efficiencies and precision in sleep disorder treatment, resulting in more improved care and better patient outcomes, according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine's (AASM) new position statement. Developed by AASM's Artificial Intelligence in Sleep Medicine Committee and published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, the position statement noted that the electrophysiological data collected during polysomnography – the most comprehensive study on sleep – is well-positioned for enhanced analysis with AI and machine learning.
