💤The 75µV threshold for scoring N3 sleep may not be a one-size-fits-all criterion, as age- and sex-related changes of slow wave amplitude may create bias, suggests a study by @shaun2406.bsky.social & Prof L Tarassenko from @oxengsci.bsky.social, and Prof S Kyle & @ Dr R Sharman from our team.🧵1/3

Is it time to revisit the scoring of Slow Wave (N3) Sleep?
Abstract. The use of a fixed electroencephalogram (EEG) amplitude threshold of 75 µV for labelling slow waves is a subject of ongoing discussion given EEG
