Philips Actiwatch
Used formerly by sleep clinicians to monitor patients’ sleep patterns, the Actiwatch is used as an aid to improving sleep.
Looking remarkably like an ordinary watch, the Actiwatch uses data loggers that provide a sleep schedules, variability, quantity and measurement of daytime activity. The data is then transmitted to the PC via USB where it can be analysed and used to identify options available for treatment.
A status indicator displays time and date with seven data channels, a large memory and ambient light sensor. Feedback is available through the display. The Actiwatch has the ability to record sleep quality and has a programmable alarm. Comfortable to wear and aesthetically pleasing, it’s an indispensible tool for patient diaries and can be used as an aid to facilitate slumber.
