The recording device is a unit of a size of one to three wrist watches, which is usually bound to the patient's limb. Typically, an actigraph is able to store the data for multiple. Therefore the examinations by actigraphy is very comfortable, completely non-invasive and relatively cheap. ...
In addition, the Artificial Intelligence in Sleep Medicine Committee of AASM in April 2022 reported that the ubiquitous availability of Photoplethysmography technology in smartwatches and fitness trackers might allow for obstructive sleep apnea diagnosis at scale. Thus, the launch of the next-g...
Using intensive longitudinal data (continuously collected over 35 days) from actigraph watches worn by 54 dyads (mean age in years 72.4 卤 7.1), we examined daily step counts and nightly sleep duration (total of 3780 observations) as a dyadic daily process. Results from multilevel process ...
Their parent completed ratings of the child's sleep during that same week. RESULTS: Actigraph watches demonstrated convergent validity with PSG when measuring a child with Down syndrome's total amount of sleep time, total wake time after sleep onset and sleep period efficiency. In contrast, ...
Children wore actigraph watches for 7 nights (M=6.81, SD=0.67) to capture sleep duration, efficiency, midpoint, onset latency, and duration variability. Results In contrast to extant literature with older youth, more advanced pubertal development was associated with longer sleep durations in ...
The recent growth in popularity of fitness-tracking watches is a major step in the right direction for individual health awareness. It turns out that these devices are very similar electronically to clinical-grade devices used to study sleep health. Those clinical devices are not available for ...
