A systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated AI-based screening tools for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) across apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) thresholds, showing generally strong diagnostic accuracy, especially for polysomnography-derived models, but highlighted variability and the need for prospective validation before clinical implementation.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Digital Health.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You can leverage AI screening tools to improve early detection of sleep apnea but should prioritise validating these models prospectively in your local population before scaling clinical use.
