HoneyNaps announced that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted the company 510(k) clearance to market SOMNUM (HoneyNaps, Seoul, South Korea) in the United States. SOMNUM is a deep learning artificial intelligence (AI)-based algorithm that analyzes sleep biosignal data obtained from polysomnography records in real-time to provide information to health care providers, assisting in the diagnosis of sleep and respiratory-related sleep disorders in adults.
According to HoneyNaps, SOMNUM processes large volumes of multi-channel/time series biosignal data, achieving a high level of analytical accuracy and transparency. This algorithm is intended to overcome the staffing and time requirements associated with traditional analysis of sleep biosignals, including:
Sleep stage events: Wake, Stage N1, Stage N2, Stage N3, Stage REM
Respiratory events: Sleep-disordered breathing
Arousal events
Leg movement events: Periodic leg movements during sleep
HoneyNaps is the first Korean company to receive FDA 510(k) clearance for an AI-based sleep biosignal analysis software.
