Traditional overnight pulse oximeter readings may be insufficient to predict TC-MRBs, finds study
In a recent study published in Scientific Reports, researchers evaluated the predictive power of numerous sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) parameters, namely overnight pulse oximeter readings and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) in predicting truck collisions attributed to microsleep-related behaviors at the wheel (TC-MRBs). Study: Risk factors for collisions attributed to microsleep-related behaviors while driving in professional truck drivers. […]
