Insights from 24-hour actigraphy using functional linear modeling in children with and without ADHD [PDF]
Scientific ReportsSleep problems and alterations in circadian rhythmicity have been widely reported in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) patients, but studies covering the full 24h-motor-activity patterns to explore whole-day activity cycles are scarce ...

Using actigraphy to assess sleep characteristics
Acta Biomedica ScientificaResearch points to the importance of circadian rhythms for health; their disruptions are associated with various diseases. This has led to the development of circadian medicine, which focuses on using knowledge of physiological rhythms to optimize ...

Associations of actigraphy derived rest activity patterns and circadian phase with clinical symptoms and polysomnographic parameters in chronic insomnia disorders [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 We explored the associations of actigraphy-derived rest-activity patterns and circadian phase parameters with clinical symptoms and level 1 polysomnography (PSG) results in patients with chronic insomnia to evaluate the clinical implications of ...

Chest, 2011 To record sleep, actigraph devices are worn on the wrist and record movements that can be used to estimate sleep parameters with specialized algorithms in computer software programs. With the recent establishment of a Current Procedural Terminology code for wrist actigraphy, this technology is being used increasingly in clinical settings as actigraphy ...

Actigraphy, the alternative way? [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2014 The gold standards for measurement of sleep and wake are polysomnography (PSG) and the multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) and will remain so. Actigraphy is cheap, less labor intensive for the sleep laboratory and gives no burden for the patient.

Actigraphy-Based Assessment of Sleep Parameters [PDF]
Annals of Work Exposures and Health, 2020 Abstract Actigraphy, a method for inferring sleep/wake patterns based on movement data gathered using actigraphs, is increasingly used in population-based epidemiologic studies because of its ability to monitor activity in natural settings. Using special software, actigraphic data are analyzed to estimate a range of sleep parameters.

Peak steps to measure ‘‘capacity for activity’’: Actigraphy in the ADAPT registry with oral treprostinil [PDF]
JHLT OpenPulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients have low activity time. Actigraphy provides an objective quantification of movement outside of clinic visits (home, work, social activities).
