Comparison of EMG, Video, and Actigraphy Signals for Detecting Motor Activity in REM Sleep Behavior Disorder

Actigraphy-measured REM-related motor activity was elevated in RBD but not in controls. EMG, actigraphy, and video captured partially overlapping motor events in RBD patients, with actigraphy showing the highest sensitivity and manually scored video the lowest.

Abstract

Actigraphy-measured REM-related motor activity was elevated in RBD but not in controls. EMG, actigraphy, and video captured partially overlapping motor events in RBD patients, with actigraphy showing the highest sensitivity and manually scored video the lowest.
