Sleep Research & Treatment Center, Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Health, Penn State University, College of Medicine, Hershey PA, USA.
Study Objectives: Although heart rate variability (HRV), a marker of cardiac autonomic modulation (CAM), is known to predict cardiovascular morbidity, the circadian timing of sleep (CTS) is also involved in autonomic modulation. We examined whether circadian misalignment is associated with blunted HRV in adolescents as a function of entrainment to school or on-breaks.
Methods: We evaluated 360 subjects from the Penn State Child Cohort (median 16y) who had at least 3-night at-home actigraphy (ACT), in-lab 9-h polysomnography (PSG) and 24-h Holter-monitoring heart rate variability (HRV) data.

Digital health is an umbrella term for components of healthcare utilizing computer platforms, software, connectivity and sensors to augment the recording, documentation and communication of clinical information. The functions of digital health may be viewed in three domains: 1) the repository for patient information, 2) monitoring devices and 3) communication tools. Monitoring devices have provided robust information as diagnostic and prognostic tools in office and hospital settings.
