Validation of minute-to-minute scoring for sleep and wake periods in a consumer wearable device compared to an actigraphy device

Abstract Background Actigraphs are widely used portable wrist-worn devices that record tri-axial accelerometry data. These data can be used to approximate amount and timing of sleep and wake. Their clinical utility is limited, however, by their expense. Tri-axial accelerometer-based consumer wearabl...
