The Sweet Dreams Study: Accuracy of Sleep Trackers in Children
This study, called "The Sweet Dreams Study," is looking at how accurate sleep trackers are for children between 2 and 17 years old. If your child is having a sleep study (polysomnography) at Arkansas Children's Hospital for issues like sleep apnea or snoring, they might be able to join. The study will compare the sleep data from wearable trackers to the results of the hospital's sleep test, which is considered the most accurate way to measure sleep. The goal is to see how well these trackers work for kids. The study is currently recruiting 300 participants.
