SmartSleep Lab seeks to respond to these needs with a set of laboratories that is detached from clinical work but still meets the standard quality and safety requirements set for clinical sleep research laboratories.

At the same time, health care professionals working with these methods must be offered professional development training in the use of new technologies and methods.” Measurement and data processing methods are developing rapidly, and scientific and clinical validation of these methods is of primary importance. “In addition, data-intensive specialised fields of medicine, such as sleep medicine and radiology, are in a major transition.

Various portable and wearable AI devices could enable the measurement and monitoring of large population cohorts however, most wearable measurement solutions and applications are not approved for medical use,” Project Manager, Postdoctoral Researcher Samu Kainulainen from the University of Eastern Finland says. At the same time, awareness of the most common sleep disorders and their serious consequences is increasing, which can be seen, for example, in the increasing number of referrals to sleep apnoea studies. “People are increasingly interested in the quality of their sleep and in measuring their recovery.
The project also involves the Kuopio Health innovation ecosystem and several companies operating in the region. The laboratory will work closely with Kuopio University Hospital, Savonia University of Applied Sciences, and the various disciplines of the University of Eastern Finland. The laboratory will be hosted by the Kuopio Campus of the University of Eastern Finland. The laboratory also assists companies operating in the health technology sector in regulatory processes concerning medical devices. The laboratory will enable faster product development, testing and validation of various health technology products, as well as prototype testing and clinical validation of health technology companies’ products. Focusing on the measurement of sleep, alertness and physiological functions while relying on the principles of open science, the unique laboratory has nationwide novelty value.
The concept of an open data laboratory developed for R&D&I and teaching purposes strengthens Kuopio’s position as one of the most relevant centres for sleep research in Europe.
