Spreadsheets & data
Review a sleep study and flag events, artefacts and unusual results
An agent can pre-score studies and highlight likely events. Interpreting them, and forming the diagnosis, stays with the physician.
Documents
Write clinical notes and a study report
An agent can draft from dictation and the scored study. The physician must confirm the report, because it is a legal record.
Example agents: Grok Bot, Claude, Microsoft Copilot
Write referral letters and treatment or device information
An agent can draft from the notes. The physician reviews before they go.
Send history, consent and pre-study forms before a first visit or a study
Forms can go out with the booking and be filed when signed.
Research
Check current guidance on a sleep disorder, device or drug
An agent can find and summarise guidelines. Clinical decisions stay with the physician.
Example agents: Manus
Customer chat
Assess the patient's sleep problem and explain the findings and options
