Recommendations from the World Sleep Society on Wearables

🧠 New Recommendations from the World Sleep Society 🌙
📱 Wearable consumer health trackers (CHTs) are widely used to monitor sleep—but their clinical value is still debated.

This international task force provides:
🔬 A scientific overview of CHT sensors & sleep metrics
📊 A call for standardized sleep measures across devices
💡 Best practices for CHT use in healthy users & those with insomnia, sleep apnea, or circadian disorders
🧪 Guidance for device validation, performance testing, and clinical implementation
🤝 Collaboration tips for researchers, clinicians & manufacturers
💾 Integration strategies for clinical health records

✅ The goal: bridge the gap between consumer tech and clinical sleep medicine to improve global sleep health.
