Abstract

Consumer sleep technologies have rapidly evolved from wrist-worn activity trackers to multisensory products. These technologies reflect a widespread interest in sleep health, and their ubiquitous ownership allows for remote sleep monitoring. Therefore, these technologies may play a valuable role in telemedicine. However, clinical usefulness remains contested and is limited by a lack of transparency in data acquisition and analysis, and uncertain accuracy of consumer sleep technology-derived sleep metrics. Collaboration between manufacturers, sleep scientists, and clinical sleep medicine teams is required to produce useable, verified technologies that can enhance and personalize the care of patients with sleep disorders.
