How to use the core set of digital measures of sleep for digital health technology (DHT) developers

These resources provide you with a common language to develop sleep parameters that are both transparent and important to patients.

Resources to help you implement the core digital measures

Use the resources below to implement the core set of digital measures of sleep in practice and to support you throughout the process.

Core Measures: Sleep Measurement System

As you work to select and procure digital solutions, use this technical document to learn more about core digital parameters at the algorithm output level.

Standardized Rationale for the Use of the Core Digital Measures of Sleep

Use this template text in your briefing book, grant proposal, ethics section, or methods section of a manuscript to standardize your presentation of DATAcc’s core digital measures and core sleep system in your work.

Library of Digital Measurement Products

Sleep digital measurement products are now included in this library, making it a valuable, one-stop-shop for you to access high-quality digital clinical measures, measurement tools, and datasets to use in your research and care.

Connecting Core Measures: Suggested Recommendations for Interpreting Data

Use these graphics, illustrating the connection of core measures with interpretation, in your work. They are designed in various styles and link to our core measures with recommendations from the National Sleep Foundation’s published consensus work.

Example Data Structure for the Core Digital Measures: Sleep Measurement System

Use this example dataset structure to illustrate how the data from a sensor-based digital health technology (sDHT) is constructed to allow for the creation of the Core Digital Measures of Sleep and the data analysis in research.
