Artificial intelligence in sleep medicine

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being used in clinical sleep medicine. Sleep studies containing complex physiological data are a rich source of clinical patient information which can be analyzed and interpreted by artificial intelligence to improve patient outcomes. In this article, we will briefly review examples of AI applications in the screening, diagnosis, and treatment of multiple sleep disorders, opportunities to improve public health related to sleep, challenges, and future directions. Although artificial intelligence is a valuable tool to improve precision sleep medicine, there is a critical need to regulate its use in clinical practice. If used correctly and responsibly, AI can be a powerful tool to promote good sleep health.
