Sleep-disordered breathing is common yet under-diagnosed, and an established sleep lab makes this a productive thesis area. The sample titles validate STOP-Bang and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale against the apnoea-hypopnoea index, examine sleep apnoea in COPD, resistant hypertension, metabolic syndrome and the elderly, study obesity hypoventilation and measure the effect of CPAP on sleepiness and blood pressure.

Polysomnography is the bottleneck: count how many studies the lab can run, and decide between attended laboratory studies and portable home devices. Manual scoring by a trained person improves accuracy. CPAP outcome studies depend on patients being able to afford and use the device, so record adherence objectively.

4Tips for a Sleep Medicine thesis

  • Score polysomnography according to current AASM rules, stating the hypopnoea definition used, because different criteria change the apnoea-hypopnoea index considerably.
  • Report STOP-Bang and Epworth Sleepiness Scale performance with sensitivity, specificity and ROC analysis against the apnoea-hypopnoea index as the reference standard.
  • Measure CPAP adherence from device download data rather than patient report, and define adequate nightly use in advance, as is usual in sleep trials.
