Detecting Sleep/Wake Rhythm Disruption Related to Cognition in Older Adults With and Without Mild Cognitive Impairment Using the myRhythmWatch Platform: Feasibility and Correlation Study
Using the Apple Watch-based myRW system to gather raw accelerometer data is feasible in older adults with and without MCI. Sleep/wake rhythms variables generated from this system correlated with cognitive function, suggesting future studies can use this approach to evaluate novel, scalable, risk factor characterization and targeted therapy approaches.
