Activity monitors provide objective measures of physical activity that can be used in clinical trial settings. Studies in a variety of patient populations have documented the value of this measure. However, variability in data collection and reading techniques can have an impact on the outcomes achieved in clinical trials. By selecting only the best actigraphy vendors, and using standardized methods of data capture and processing, Clinilabs’ core data center is able to provide high quality data that meet clients’ needs. Actigraphy can be incorporated into a trial for screening purposes to ensure that subjects meet inclusion/exclusion criteria, or can be employed as a primary, secondary, or surrogate outcome. Some of the areas in which actigraphy may be applied include:
- Psychiatry
- Sleep and wakefulness
- Fatigue
- Pain
- Cough
- Itch
- ADHD
