About this study

In recent years, wearable devices are booming to enable not only the health monitoring but also the sleep efficiency assessment. To validate the algorithm of sleep staging and efficiency, this study will use a dedicated prototype to acquire photoplethysmogram (PPG), body movements, skin temperature, and galvanic skin response by recruiting 35 subjects. PSG will be used as gold standard for statistical analysi.

Read the detailed description

Sleep efficiency has a great impact on the performance of work and learning during the day. If persons lack of sleep for a long time, they might be prone to memory loss and emotional instability. Traditionally, polysomnography (PSG) has been proved as golden results to assess the sleep efficiency. However, to accomplish the assessment, subjects are asked to sleep in a certified sleep laboratory or a sleep centers for nights. Under the supervision of nurses, subjects are put many adhesive electrodes on the body and connect wires to PSG, which causes discomfort. In recent years, wearable devices are booming to enable not only the health monitoring but also the sleep efficiency assessment. To validate the algorithm of sleep staging and efficiency, this study will use a dedicated prototype to acquire photoplethysmogram (PPG), body movements, skin temperature, and galvanic skin response by recruiting 35 subjects. PSG will be used as gold standard for statistical analysi.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • smart watches(wearable devices)Device

    Participants will be asked to wear two smart watches simultaneously. The first smart watch is a dedicated prototype for validating algorithm developed by MediaTek. The second smart watch is Basis Peak. These watches are going to acquire PPG, body movements, skin temperature, and skin conductance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. sleep stages derived from smartwatch

    Comparing sleep stages detected by a smartwatch(hh:mm) with the sleep stages of an overnight PSG(N1 (%), N2 (%), N3 (%), REM(%), Arousal index (/h) to validate the effectiveness of the smartwatch.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. sleep efficiency derived from smartwatch

    Comparing sleep efficiency(%) detected by a smartwatch with the sleep efficiency(%) from an overnight PSG to validate the effectiveness of the smartwatch.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing smart watches(wearable devices) in people with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

sleep stages derived from smartwatch (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Nov 2024.
