Photoplethysmography-new applications for an old technology: a sleep technology review. J Clin Sleep Med. 2023;19(1):189-195. doi:10.5664/jcsm.10300https://hdl.handle.net/1805/41058Education is integral to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) mission. The AASM Emerging Technology Committee identified an important and evolving piece of technology that is present in many of the consumer and clinical technologies that we review on the AASM #SleepTechnology (https://aasm.org/consumer-clinical-sleep-technology/) resource-photoplethysmography. As more patients with sleep tracking devices ask clinicians to view their data, it is important for sleep providers to have a general understanding of the technology, its sensors, how it works, targeted users, evidence for the claimed uses, and its strengths and weaknesses. The focus in this review is photoplethysmography-a sensor type used in the familiar pulse oximeter that is being developed for additional utilities and data outputs in both consumer and clinical sleep technologies.en-USPublisher PolicyPhotoplethysmographySleep technologyWearablesArticle
