Systems and methods for detecting REM behavior disorder

A system comprising:

• an electronic interface configured to receive data associated with a current sleep session of an individual, the data including temporal data associated with the current sleep session;
• a memory storing machine-readable instructions;
• and
• a control system including one or more processors configured to execute the machine-readable instructions to:
• analyze at least a portion of the received data to identify one or more sleep stages experienced by the individual during the current sleep session, the one or more sleep stages including a light sleep stage, a deep sleep stage, a typical rapid eye movement (REM) stage, an atypical REM stage, a wake stage, or any combination thereof, the analyzing including distinguishing between one or more atypical REM sleep stages and one or more wake stages based at least in part on the temporal data;
• and
• generate a summary of the current sleep session, the summary including (i) a number of the one or more atypical REM sleep stages experienced by the individual during the current sleep session, (ii) a time spent in atypical REM sleep stages during the current sleep session, or (iii) both (i) and (ii).

A method for monitoring a sleep session of an individual, the method comprising:

• receiving data associated with a current sleep session of the individual, the data including at least temporal data associated with the current sleep session and motion data indicative of motion of the individual during the current sleep session;
• analyzing at least a portion of the received data to identify one or more sleep stages experienced by the individual during the current sleep session, the one or more sleep stages including a light sleep stage, a deep sleep stage, a typical rapid eye movement (REM) stage, an atypical REM stage, a wake stage, or any combination thereof, the analyzing including:
• tracking a time elapsed since a beginning of the current sleep session based at least in part on the temporal data;
• analyzing the motion data to detect if the individual is currently moving;
• in response to a first amount of time having elapsed since the beginning of the current sleep session and detecting the individual is currently moving, determining that the individual is currently in the wake stage;
• and/or
• in response to a second amount of time having elapsed since the beginning of the current sleep session and detecting the individual is currently moving, determining that the individual is currently in the atypical REM sleep stage, the second amount of time being greater than the first amount of time;
• and
• generating a summary of the current sleep session, the summary including (i) a number of atypical REM sleep stages experienced by the individual during the current sleep session, (ii) a time spent in atypical REM sleep stages during the current sleep session, or (iii) both (i) and (ii).
