Abstract
El análisis del sueño mediante actimetría es una técnica que supone una alternativa
totalmente contrastada a la monitorización del EEG, debido a su fácil manejo, se usa en el
caso particular de recién nacidos y en niños de mayor edad. Este sistema de detección del
sueño lo forman tres componentes: un piezoacelerómetro de pulsera (Actiwatch®), un lector
que nos comunica el Actiwatch con el ordenador personal y el software para el análisis
correspondiente, se procesa la actividad recogida, obteniendo determinados parámetros de
sueño nocturno a partir del software Sleep Analysis como son: Sueño Asumido, Sueño Real,
Eficiencia de Sueño y Latencia de sueño entre otros. Asimismo, utilizando la opción de Nap
Analysis conseguimos analizar los posibles episodios de sueño diurno. Por todo ello junto
con el fácil mantenimiento y uso, tanto del activimetro como de su software y sin perder por
ello fiabilidad, se recomienda su utilización en el estudio del sueño en diferentes estados y
estadios de la vida de un individuo.
ABSTRACT Sleep analysis by means of activimetry is a technique that means / implies a totally verified / confirmed alternative to EEG monitorization, thus being used in particular in case of newborn and children due to its easy utilization. This sleepdetection system consist of three components: a watch strap actometer (Actiwatch®), a reader that communicates the actiwatch with a personal computer, and the software for the appropriate analysis, which processes the collected activity, therefore obtaining determined night sleep parameters from the Sleep Analysis software, as: Assumed Sleep, Actual Sleep, Sleep Efficiency and Sleep Latency, among others. In the same way, using the Nap Analysis option we get to analyze the possible diurnal sleep episodes. That’s why together with both the easy handling of the actometer and its software, and without losing reliability just because of it, its use is recommended / suggested in the sleep study in different states and stages of a life’s person.
