Exercise and Sleep in PLMS: A Wearable Device Study
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a single session of exercise can improve sleep in people with periodic limb movements during sleep (PLMS). It uses a smartwatch and ring to track sleep patterns and compares results to a control group without PLMS.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 22 years old or older.
- You typically sleep at least 5 hours each night.
- You have a sleep study showing a PLMS index of 15 or higher (a measure of leg movements during sleep).
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not have any skin conditions, tattoos, or devices on your wrist or fingers that would interfere with a smartwatch or smart ring.
- You are not taking any medications for sleep disorders and have not had treatment for PLMS before.

This trial tests a smartwatch tool to track heart rhythm and detect problems in people with heart disease. It may help find irregular heartbeats early during routine checkups.
This study checks whether wearable sensors (like a sleep band and a wearable EEG) and a phone can accurately identify your sleep stages. It includes healthy people and people with sleep problems to see how well the devices work and whether results match a standard sleep lab test.
This study tests a wearable sleep monitor (WatchPAT 400) in children and teens who are already scheduled for an overnight sleep test. It aims to see if the wearable device can reliably detect sleep problems as an easier alternative.
This study tests a new wearable device (WP) against standard sleep testing (PSG) for people with suspected sleep problems. It may help diagnose issues like sleep apnea more comfortably.
This study tests a new wearable mask system that works with your APAP machine to treat sleep apnea. You'll try the mask for up to 7 nights to see if it is easy to use and comfortable.
This study tracks your daily rhythms using a wearable device and saliva samples to see how sleep patterns differ between healthy people and those with sleep disorders. It may help improve understanding and treatment of sleep problems.
