The Use of Multiple Sensors to Track Sleep in Nightshift Workers (NCT06670287)

A Multi-Sensor Machine Learning Approach to Precision Sleep Tracking for Nightshift Workers

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿ“‹ Clinical Research Protocol Sponsor: Henry Ford Health System

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

Sleep is often a challenge for nightshift workers because their work and sleep schedules are inverted. Sleep is commonly measured using actigraphy, which is the standard measure of objective sleep in the general population; however, this method has substantial limitations for nightshift workers because the standard legacy algorithms only correctly identify 50.3% of daytime sleep. This significantly reduces the validity for nightshift workers. The purpose of this study is to test a novel method to expand actigraphy by using 1) a multi-sensor approach that 2) uses machine learning (ML) algorithms to increase the accuracy of detecting daytime sleep.
