Sleep-wake parameters can be detected in patients with chronic stroke using a multisensor accelerometer: a validation study

Sleep-wake dysfunction is bidirectionally associated with the pathogenesis and evolution of stroke. Longitudinal and prospective measurement of sleep after chronic stroke remains poorly characterized because of a lack of validated objective and ambulatory sleep measurement tools in neurological populations. This study aimed to validate a multisensor sleep monitor, the SenseWear Armband (SWA), in patients with ischemic stroke and control patients...
