PSG – Electrode Integrity & Prep

Clean data doesn’t magically appear at scoring. It starts at setup.

Most subpar PSG recordings trace back to artifact from loose leads, poor adhesion, or rushed prep. High impedance is usually a warning sign, not a mystery. It means skin-electrode contact isn’t doing its job and needs to be fixed before the study starts.

Best practice is simple and still somehow ignored:
• Prep the skin properly
• Apply electrodes with intention
• Check impedance after each placement
• Re-prep immediately if readings are high

Quality preparation isn’t extra work. It’s the difference between usable data and a long night of explaining artifacts that never needed to exist.

Why EEG Montage Standardization Matters

Accurate EEG interpretation doesn’t start at review. It starts with how the data is recorded.

ACNS-recommended montage standards create consistency across labs, improve diagnostic confidence, and ensure both global and focal cerebral activity are properly evaluated.

This carousel breaks down the key ACNS principles behind montage selection, channel count, and review flexibility and why standardization strengthens, rather than limits, clinical interpretation.

🧾 Every click matters.

Nexus360 delivers full audit reports showing who logged in, when they logged in, and exactly what changes were made across the platform.

You can also audit study volume by modality, tracking how many studies were completed in-lab, HST, or across any other Nexus360-supported offerings.

With role-based permissions, you control and limit access for every staff member, ensuring the right people see and change only what they should.

Built for regulated clinical environments where accountability, compliance, and visibility are required, not optional.

Stop treating PAT like the finish line.

Sleep Review just put Somfit in the PAT category with the usual suspects, but Somfit does something none of them do: it anchors the entire study to real sleep biology with EEG, EMG, and EOG, then tightens the denominator with VST, Valid Sleep Time.

That is the difference between an index that looks clean and an index you can defend.

PAT measures the body’s response.
Somfit measures the brain’s state first.

When sleep and wake are inferred, AHI becomes negotiable.

When sleep is measured and the denominator is validated, clinical confidence goes up and rescans go down.

This is where home testing is going: fewer assumptions, more truth.

Quality PSG data depends on two things that don’t get enough attention: reliability and redundancy.

The best PSG systems don’t just deliver high-resolution signals. They’re built with redundant pathways and fail-safes that protect critical data when things don’t go perfectly. Because they never do.

When data drops, diagnoses suffer.

When diagnoses suffer, patients pay the price.

Designing for failure isn’t pessimism. It’s responsible medicine.

Not often does a company get to define an industry first that actually matters.

Today, Compumedics introduces Valid Sleep Time (VST), a new clinical standard designed to solve one of the most persistent problems in sleep diagnostics: knowing when data is truly valid.

For years, sleep testing has relied on assumed sleep and total recording time. That assumption introduces artifact, inflates indices, and drives misclassification.

VST changes that.

Valid Sleep Time does three things no existing metric can:

• Improves accuracy by validating signal quality and sleep using synchronized EEG-based data rather than inference
• Reduces misclassification by redefining AHI using verified sleep and removing SpO₂ artifact from the denominator
• Provides a clearer representation of patient risk by preventing artifact from skewing clinical decision making

With VST, AHI is no longer influenced by contaminated sleep.
Clinical decisions are made using validated physiology, not noise.

This is not a rebrand.
This is a new standard.

Accuracy is not accidental.
It is engineered.

Sleep technologists play a critical role in healthcare.

They work behind the scenes to ensure accurate data, patient safety, and reliable diagnoses night after night. Their attention to detail and clinical expertise turn hours of raw signals into insights that change lives.

This work matters.

And so do the people doing it.
