Validity of an algorithm for determining sleep/wake states using FS-760 in school-aged children.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Actigraphy is a method used for determining sleep (S)/wakefulness (W) by actigraph, a device equipped with a built-in accelerometer and an algorithm validated for each device. The S/W determination algorithm for the waist-worn actigraph FS-760 has been formulated for adults. However, the algorithm for children has not been established. The purpose of this study was to formulate an algorithm for discriminating S/W in school-aged children using FS-760 and to evaluate its validity. We further tested the generalizability of existing algorithm for adults by applying it to the children's activity data and then examined factors associated with adult algorithm agreement rates by multiple regression analysis using combined adult and children data.
