Ambient Teens Sleep Study: Protocol for a co-produced feasibility study in adolescents using a contactless radar-based sleep sensor.

ABSTRACT: Sleep is crucial for the healthy development of adolescents, yet many suffer from chronic sleep deprivation. Over the transition to and course of adolescence there are known changes to sleep patterns e.g. shifts towards evening chronotypes. To study changes and patterns of sleep over these critical developmental time-points, detailed longitudinal data is required over months/years rather than weeks/days, a typical limitation of current technology. The implementation of novel contactless sleep sensors offers significant opportunities for longer term data collection, but their application has yet to be explored in young people in terms of feasibility, acceptability, performance and operability. The Ambient Teens Sleep Study will assess the feasibility of a contactless sleep sensor with appro
