No results posted yet for this study

Summary

We propose to use actigraphy (measured by activity watches) as a tool to quantify sleep disturbances in patients with orthostatic intolerance compared with healthy control subjects. In this pilot study, we will test the null hypothesis (Ho) that there are no differences in the sleep quality between patients with orthostatic intolerance and healthy control subjects.

Conditions

  • Postural Tachycardia Syndrome
  • Orthostatic Intolerance
  • Sleep Disorders

Interventions

DEVICE

Actigraphy Watch (motion sensors) with light sensors - ActiWatch from Minimitter

Watch to be worn on wrist for 7 days (except in water) that will measure activity/movement.
