Postoperative Sleep Interventions and Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sleep disturbance is a common issue affecting nearly 78% of cardiothoracic postoperative patients. There are no systematic reviews of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluate the impact of sleep interventions within this population.

Validation of Zulu Watch against Polysomnography and Actigraphy for On-Wrist Sleep-Wake Determination and Sleep-Depth Estimation

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Traditional measures of sleep or commercial wearables may not be ideal for use in operational environments. The Zulu watch is a commercial sleep-tracking device designed to collect longitudinal sleep data in real-world environments. Laboratory testing is

Use of actigraphy in neurological patient population

open access: yes, 2009
An actigraph is a portable device that measures movement, usually of the non-dominant wrist, to estimate rest-activity patterns and sleep-wake cycles. The use of actigraphy has grown over the past decade.

Physical Activity Profile of School‐Aged Children Born Very Preterm and Its Association With Sleep

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To describe the association between different physical activity and sleep parameters in school‐aged children born very preterm. Methods A cross‐sectional analysis was done in a cohort of 6‐ to 10‐year‐old children born at < 32 weeks' gestation at the Department of Neonatology, University of Tübingen, Germany.

From barriers to benefits: A personalized sleep intervention enhances sleep duration and emotional health in chronic short sleepers

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This pilot study evaluated a personalized sleep intervention incorporating motivational interviewing techniques to address sleep barriers, along with tailored sleep hygiene and extension for chronic short sleepers. Eleven university students completed a 14‐day sequential intervention (baseline, sleep hygiene and a combined phase adding 90‐min ...

Nonparametric methods in actigraphy: An update

open access: yesSleep Science, 2014
Circadian rhythmicity in humans has been well studied using actigraphy, a method of measuring gross motor movement. As actigraphic technology continues to evolve, it is important for data analysis to keep pace with new variables and features. Our objective is to study the behavior of two variables, interdaily stability and intradaily variability, to ...

Use of Wearable Sensors in Angelman Syndrome: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Intellectual Disability Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Wearable sensors are a promising method for collecting clinical trial outcome data for people with Angelman syndrome (AS). However, there has yet to be a systematic probe into the ways in which wearable sensors have been successfully used in AS. The current study aims to provide a quantitative summary of wearable sensors used in AS,
