Comparison of EMG, Video, and Actigraphy Signals for Detecting Motor Activity in REM Sleep Behavior Disorder [PDF]

Diagnostics
Background: Electromyography (EMG), video-polysomnography (vPSG), and wrist actigraphy are each used to develop diagnostic algorithms for rapid-eye-movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD).

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.

Accuracy of Actigraphy Compared to Concomitant Ambulatory Polysomnography in Narcolepsy and Other Sleep Disorders

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Actigraphy provides longitudinal sleep data over multiple nights. It is a less expensive and less cumbersome method for measuring sleep than polysomnography.

Wrist Actigraphy [PDF]

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

Indian Journal of Sleep Medicine, 2007
Actigraphy is a methodology for recording and analyzing activity (movement) from small, computerized devices worn on the body. Published reports on the reliability and validity of actigraph measures, although not comprehensive, generally indicate that sleep estimated by scoring algorithms is relatively consistent with PSG-scored sleep for normal ...

Actigraphy in brain-injured patients – A valid measurement for assessing circadian rhythms?

BMC Medicine, 2020
Background Actigraphy has received increasing attention in classifying rest-activity cycles. However, in patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC), actigraphy data may be considerably confounded by passive movements, such as nursing activities and ...

A comparison of actigraphy and sleep diaries for infants’ sleep behavior

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2015
Detecting the effectiveness of behavioral interventions to reduce infant night waking requires valid sleep measures. Although viewed as an objective measure, actigraphy has overestimated night waking.
