Tags: The University of Queensland, Australia, Healthcare & Lifesciences
UQ researchers have created a mobile phone-based method for screening Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), offering a simpler alternative to polysomnography. This technology allows early detection of OSA through snoring analysis, considering individual variability and co-morbidities. It's a significant step towards accessible and user-friendly diagnosis, enabling early intervention for those at risk of OSA.
