Intended Use

Esprit Nova is a software-only product intended to assist a physician in the diagnostic evaluation of sleep quality and sleep disordered breathing in adults only. Esprit Nova analyzes the physiological signals and automatically scores sleep events; including the stages of sleep, microarousals, snoring, periodic limb movements, desaturations and sleep disordered breathing events apneas, hypopneas, and respiratory event related arousals). This device is to be used under the supervision of a physician. The device does not provide any diagnostic conclusion about the patient's condition.

Device Story

Esprit Nova is a software-only application for analyzing previously recorded physiological sleep signals (EDF files) from PSG systems. It processes EEG, EOG, ECG, EMG, oximetry, airflow, and respiratory effort data to automatically score sleep stages (REM, N1-N3, wake), microarousals, snoring, periodic limb movements, desaturations, and sleep-disordered breathing (apneas, hypopneas, RERAs). The system consists of a central server-hosted analysis module and a Windows-based administrative module for local database management and data transmission. Used in clinics or home settings by qualified medical practitioners, the device generates a comprehensive sleep study report integrating physiological analysis with patient history/questionnaire data. The output assists physicians in clinical decision-making regarding sleep quality and breathing disorders. It does not provide diagnostic conclusions.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical validation involved 60 adult PSG studies (40 OSA, 1 RLS, 3 RLS+OSA, 7 titration, 9 normal). Primary endpoints were positive/negative percent agreement (PPA/NPA) compared to a gold-standard panel of 3 board-certified EEG professionals. Results: Wake PPA 0.83, N1 PPA 0.29, N2 PPA 0.82, N3 PPA 0.66, REM PPA 0.84. PLM detector PPA 87% (95% CI 83-93) with 2.4 false detections/hour, demonstrating equivalence to predicate and professional reviewers.

Technological Characteristics

Software-only device; operates on Windows 7 or higher. Inputs: EDF files (EEG, EOG, ECG, EMG, oximetry, airflow, effort). Analysis: Automated signal processing and event detection algorithms. Connectivity: Networked (central server/local client). No hardware components; no specific material standards applicable.

Indications for Use

Indicated for diagnostic evaluation of sleep quality and sleep disordered breathing in adults. Used under physician supervision. Not for diagnostic conclusions.

Regulatory Classification

Identification
