Wearable Technology in the Detection and Evaluation of Sleep-Related Breathing Disorders
Sponsor: Universidade da Coruña
Summary
This project is an observational study that aims to evaluate the accuracy of wearable devices in detecting potential sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBD) in individuals visiting the Sleep-Related Breathing Disorders and Home Ventilation Unit. The main goal of the study is to determine if wearable devices, like sleep and activity-tracking wristbands and watches, can effectively supplement the detection of these disorders. The study will analyze various variables related to sleep quality and quantity. Participants will be asked to wear a Xiaomi Mi Band 8 device during an overnight hospital polygraphy test, which will be conducted for one day in their usual daily environment. Additionally, at the beginning of their participation, they will need to complete a questionnaire collecting information about sociodemographic variables, daily habits, routines, and their assessment using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale. After completing the polygraphy test and using the Xiaomi device, participants will be required to answer another questionnaire addressing aspects related to their sleep quality and habits during this period.

Interventions
Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 8
The wearable device, Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 8, will be used solely for observational purposes to assess its accuracy in measuring sleep parameters, oxygen saturation, and heart rate in comparison to nocturnal polygraphy. Participants are receiving routine care as prescribed by their clinicians, and the wearable device is not part of their medical treatment but is being observed alongside standard polygraphy tests.
