Effect of closed-loop vibration stimulation on sleep quality for poor sleepers.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Recent studies have investigated the autonomic modulation method using closed-loop vibration stimulation (CLVS) as a novel strategy for enhancing sleep quality. This study aimed to explore the effects of CLVS on sleep quality, autonomic regulation, and brain activity in individuals with poor sleep quality.

Methods

Twenty-seven participants with poor sleep quality (Pittsburgh sleep quality index >5) underwent two experimental sessions using polysomnography and a questionnaire, one with CLVS (STIM) and the other without (SHAM).

Results

Sleep macrostructure analysis first showed that CLVS significantly reduced the total time, proportion, and average duration of waking after sleep onset. These beneficial effects were paralleled by significantly increased self
