Self-applied somnography: technical feasibility of electroencephalography and electro-oculography signal characteristics in sleep staging of suspected sleep-disordered adults.

Sleep recordings are increasingly being conducted in patients' homes where patients apply the sensors themselves according to instructions. However, certain sensor types such as cup electrodes used in conventional polysomnography are unfeasible for self-application. To overcome this, self-applied forehead montages with electroencephalography and electro-oculography sensors have been developed.
