Summary of environmental features that show the strongest association with patient BTCP of each deployment when compared with individual BTCP episodes and BTCP frequency/severity over 24 hours

Deployment Number (D.#) Environmental feature associated with individual episodes of patient BTCP Environmental feature associated with episodes of patient BTCP over a 24-hour time window
individual BTCP individual BTCP severity BTCP frequency average BTCP severity
D.1 (n = 98) Light MCR (r = −0.33) Light Max (r = 0.26) Humidity MD (r = 0.84) Light MD (r = 0.57)
D.2 (n = 84) Light Median Deviation (r = − 0.24) Noise Median Deviation (r = 0.36) Noise Max (r = 0.78) Noise Mean & SD (r = 0.74)
D.3 (n = 48) Light Minimum (r = 0.38) Noise Mean (− 0.73) Noise SD (r = 0.60) Barometric pressure MCR (r = 0.83)
D.4 (n = 60) Barometric pressure MD (r = 0.45) Light MCR (r = −0.31) Barometric pressure MD (r = 0.84) Temperature MD (r = −0.82)
D.5 (n = 106) Barometric pressure SD (r = 0.19) Noise Median Deviation (r = 0.33) Barometric pressure Max (r = 0.66) Light MD (r = −0.59)
