Introduction Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is a treatment for apnea. With long-term CPAP, changes in electroencephalogram (EEG) include increased delta power (1 - 4Hz) and sigma power (11 - 15Hz, spindle). However, the short-term EEG response to CPAP in a split-night study is less quantified. We recently developed a “brain age” model using sleep EEG features. The brain age index (BAI) is defined as the difference between chronological age and brain age (BA - CA). Here we first quantify how BAI changes during CPAP in the same patient, and then investigate how much brain age features during the diagnostic part can predict the reduction in apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) during CPAP. Methods The dataset consisted of 160 subjects. The average age was 59 years with 53% male, 24% female and 23% unknown. We extracted 480 features including band powers, and then computed the BAIs for both diagnostic and CPAP parts. To predict the reduction in AHI during CPAP, we fit a Bayesian regression model using the brain age features, demographics, and sleep parameters during the diagnostic part, and assessed the feature importance using dominance analysis. Results The BAI from the diagnostic part is significantly reduced compared to BAI during CPAP for the same subject (paired t-test, p &amp;lt; 0.01). The diagnostic part has an average BAI 2.24 years; and the CPAP part -4.75 years. The brain age features that are increased during CPAP include sigma powers in N2 and N3. The prediction of AHI reduction has Pearson’s correlation 0.85. The features predictive of reduced AHI are the diagnostic AHI (explained variance 69%), followed by high/low waveforms during N2 (e.g. K-complex, measured by kurtosis) (8.6%), delta power during REM (4.5%) and N1 (2%). The feature predictive of increased AHI is frontal alpha power during quiet awake (2.6%). Conclusion The average BAI is reduced during CPAP. BAI provides a novel view of the acute response to CPAP in sleep EEG. Future study with more CPAP failure patients has the potential of predicting CPAP failure.
