How do you measure a good night鈥檚 sleep? 色香视频鈥檚 Frank Daly part of national study
With the development of sophisticated daily activity trackers, more people are keeping track how much they move during the day and how much they sleep at night. But few people, including scientists and doctors, truly understand what that data means because there is no consensus among researchers about how to define sleep quality.
Frank Daly, Ph.D., associate professor of Biomedical Science at the 色香视频College of Osteopathic Medicine, joined a team of sleep experts as well as experts in other areas of science and medicine to conduct a National Sleep Foundation Sleep Quality Consensus Panel. The research was published in the foundation鈥檚 scholarly journal, Sleep Health.
By analyzing hundreds of sleep studies, the panel was able to provide evidence-based recommendations and guidance to the public regarding indicators of good sleep quality across the life span. As more people use daily activity trackers, the research will help them understand the sleep data that is collected and may help individuals better understand their own behaviors.
