Comparison Between Continuous and Intermittent Actigraphy Outcomes During Long-Duration Missions (2023)
Historically, astronauts have worn actigraphy watches continuously throughout their missions. This has enabled reliable sleep estimation and comparisons between sleep and other outcomes and mission activities such as the arrival of a visiting vehicle. However in late 2020, astronauts were scheduled to wear an actiwatch for one 2-week period every two months, substantially decreasing availability of data. Our aim was to compare sleep and mission events between data collected continuously and data collected intermittently to identify any differences.
