Clinical Validation of New Commercial Sleep Monitoring Devices
Clinical Validation of New Commercial Sleep Monitoring Devices
This study seeks to validate three new commercial sleep monitoring devices: Fitbit, Jawbone
 UP, and Microsoft Band by comparison against concurrent polysomnography (PSG), which is
 considered the gold standard for sleep assessment. This research is being done because if
 proven to accurately analyze sleep,these devices may make conducting in-home sleep studies
 easier and more affordable in the future.
This study seeks to validate three new commercial sleep monitoring devices: Fitbit, Jawbone
 UP, and Microsoft Band by comparison against concurrent polysomnography (PSG), considered the
 gold standard assessment for sleep physiology. The investigators emphasize here that the
 commercial sleep monitoring devices (Fitbit, Jawbone UP, and Microsoft Band) are used in
 addition to PSG and not in place of it. Subjects will be recruited from those patients
 attending a regularly scheduled overnight PSG sleep study at the Weill Cornell Medical
 College Center for Sleep Medicine. Willing subjects, after providing informed consent, will
 be fitted with one of the three aforementioned sleep monitoring devices (randomly assigned)
 on the wrist of their non-dominant hand when prepared for the sleep study by a technician.
 Subjects willing to wear more than one sleep monitoring device may be fitted with two
 different sleep monitoring devices, e.g., a Fitbit and a Jawbone UP or a Fitbit and a
 Microsoft Band. Sleep monitoring device(s) will be removed from the subject's wrist in the
 morning at the conclusion of the sleep study. Data will be transferred from the sleep
 monitoring device(s) for later statistical analysis and comparison with scored polysomnogram.
 Device(s) will be cleaned (using antiseptic wipes), reset,recharged, and otherwise prepared
 for reuse.
