Can OSCAR do anything with lab sleep study data?

Can OSCAR do anything with lab sleep study data?
According to my sleep studies, this is the technical specs on the gear:

Quote:TECHNICAL ASPECTS OF RECORDING AND ANALYSIS TECHNIQUES: Data was collected using Nihon Kohden digital monitoring systems with Polysmith acquisition software. Continuous recording of 1) EEG from the frontal, central, and occipital scalp regions (F3-M2, F4-M1, C3-M2, C4-M1, 01-M2, 02-M1); 2) Eye movements ( EOG) recording from El-M2 and E2-M 1; 3)Submentalis (chin) EMG; 4) Cardiac rate and rhythm (EKG, modified lead II); 5) Leg EMG (right and left anterior tibialis leg EMG); 6) Snore sensor; 6) Thoracic and Abdominal respiratory effort; 7) Arterial oxygen saturation using pulse oximetry (Sa02); 8) End-tidal (EtCO2) and/or transcutaneous (tcCO2) carbon dioxide monitoring (optional); 9) body position; 10) Synchronized digital audio-video monitoring. A polysomnographic technologist attended (was present) throughout this test. Expanded but still limited EEG channels were added when indicated.

Is there any hope that the recording is in edf files, or any other way that it is in any way readable by OSCAR?

RE: Can OSCAR do anything with lab sleep study data?
Having never seen the data, the only honest answer is "I don't know".

It's almost certain that OSCAR won't read the data, because OSCAR relies on an Identification file as well as the STR.edf and DATALOG files, both of which have multiple days worth of data.

The edfbrowser would read the individual edf files, but not create any sort of combined report.
