Reliable Contactless Monitoring of Heart Rate, Breathing Rate, and Breathing Disturbance During Sleep in Aging: Digital Health Technology Evaluation Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Longitudinal monitoring of vital signs provides a method for identifying changes to general health in an individual, particularly in older adults. The nocturnal sleep period provides a convenient opportunity to assess vital signs. Contactless technologies that can be embedded into the bedroom environment are unintrusive and burdenless and have the potential to enable seamless monitoring of vital signs. To realize this potential, these technologies need to be evaluated against gold standard measures and in relevant populations.

Objective

We aimed to evaluate the accuracy of heart rate and breathing rate measurements of 3 contactless technologies (2 undermattress trackers, Withings Sleep Analyzer [WSA] and Emfit QS [Emfit]; and a bedside radar, Somnofy) in a sleep l
