This dataset, sleep_disorder_df, is a data frame containing polysomnographic (PSG) measurements from a clinical study designed to compare automated and semi-automated scoring methods used in the diagnosis of transient sleep disorders. The study included 82 patients who were administered a sleep-inducing drug (Zolpidem 10 mg). The primary measure of interest is the latency to persistent sleep (LPS), defined as the time from lights out to the beginning of 10 consecutive minutes of uninterrupted sleep. LPS was measured using three different scoring methods: manual, automated, and partial.
