Abstract
ActTrust was FDA cleared (5/25/16) as “an ultra-compact, light-weight, wrist-worn exercise, temperature and ambient gentle monitor that can be utilized to research circadian rhythms, routinely gather and retailer information for sleep parameters, and assess exercise in any occasion the place quantifiable evaluation of bodily movement is fascinating” for adults 22 years and older. Information are transferred through usb, and uncooked information modifying is obtainable. The companion ActSudio software program features a sleep diary software, sleep analytics (SL, SE, WASO, # awakenings), circadian analytics (noparametric evaluation, cosinor, periodogram, actogram), and customized stories.
Claimed Capabilities/Measurements
ActTrust is a wrist-worn actigraphy that claims to make correct exercise, gentle, and temperature measurements. It claims to be an “preferrred device for researchers and docs within the chronobiology and sleep drugs areas,” and in addition might be worn on different physique areas to trace sleep-wake timing. It claims to have a steady (3 month) rechargeable battery life and an occasion marker, supply information safety, use the best high quality supplies, and supply sensor measures for gentle spectrum, motion, and temperature. Information are transferred utilizing ActDock with a usb to laptop. The ActStudio companion software program permits uncooked information modifying and sleep and circadian analytics. The web site claims that the sleep “detection algorithm has been validated in opposition to polysomnography.” ActTrust2 is barely lighter, smaller, and has a watch/time show. ActLumus provides a supplemental sensor that augments gentle information assortment, offers off wrist detection, and provides Bluetooth computerized information uploads.
Mechanism
Acceleromoter movement sensor, orientation, thermistor temperature sensor, gentle sensor for whole gentle and compenents of RGB-IR spectrum. The system has a swap to mark sure occasions. The system makes use of exercise detection modes (PIM, ZCM, TAT).
Sensors
Triaxial accelerometer; 2 temperature (thermistor) sensors; gentle sensor (whole gentle and particular person RGB-IR parts); All information are processed earlier than storing within the non-volatile system reminiscence.
Technical Issues
ActLumus has a supplemental sensor that may increase gentle information assortment, has off-wrist detection, and makes use of Bluetooth for computerized information uploads.

Comparability Take a look at(s): Every day sleep diaries and 5 commercially accessible units: Micro-Mini Movement Logger, ActTrust, Misfit Flash, Fitbit Flex, & Thermochron
Examine Abstract: Twenty-two (11 males, 11 females) wholesome volunteers (21–34 years outdated) had been offered 5 completely different commercially accessible actigraphy units to put on whereas protecting every day sleep diaries for seven days. These had been in contrast in opposition to one another. Three of the units embody algorithms for sleep rhythm evaluation together with the ActTrust, and no important variations had been discovered for sleep onset or whole sleep time amongst them.

Examine Abstract: This research explored if circadian regulation and pores and skin vasodilator responses could play a task in Persistent Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME). Ten CFS/ME ladies and ten controls underwent comparative testing. Amongst different measures, the ActTrust actigraph was used to document exercise, DST and lightweight depth, with information intervals of 1 minute over seven consecutive days. Primarily based on their outcomes, the authors reported findings suggesting “that circadian regulation and pores and skin vasodilator responses could play a task in CFS/ME.”
