An interesting interview on wearable tech and Orthosomnia - the unhealthy obsession with getting perfect sleep.
The pandemic not only disrupted sleep but may have also triggered an uptick in the use of wearable tech. Sleep tracking was featured at the Cardiovascular Health Tech virtual conference 2022, sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society technical committee on Cardiopulmonary Systems and Physiology-Based Engineering.
Medscape caught up with presenter Kelly Glazer Baron, PhD, MPH, DBSM, an associate professor at the University of Utah and a clinical psychologist specializing in behavioral sleep medicine.
