These clinical guidelines, which have been reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors of the American Sleep Disorders Association, provide recommendations for the practice of sleep medicine in North America for the use of actigraphy in the clinical assessment of sleep disorders. The American Sleep Disorders Association has produced these guidelines, based upon a critical review of the scientific literature, regarding the use of actigraphy in the clinical evaluation of sleep disorders. Though not indicated for the routine assessment of sleep disorders, actigraphy may be a useful adjunct, in certain circumstances, to a detailed history and examination when demonstration of multiday rest-activity patterns is necessary to diagnose, document severity, and guide proper treatment of sleep disorders.
这些临床指南已经过美国睡眠障碍协会董事会的审查和批准，为北美睡眠医学实践中使用活动记录仪进行睡眠障碍临床评估提供了建议。美国睡眠障碍协会基于对科学文献的严格审查，制定了这些关于在睡眠障碍临床评估中使用活动记录仪的指南。虽然活动记录仪并非用于睡眠障碍的常规评估，但在某些情况下，当需要展示多日的休息 - 活动模式以诊断、记录严重程度并指导睡眠障碍的适当治疗时，它可能是详细病史和检查的有用辅助手段。
