The role and validity of actigraphy in sleep medicine: An update
TLDR
This update indicates that according to most studies, actigraphy has reasonable validity and reliability in normal individuals with relatively good sleep patterns, and is sensitive in detecting sleep changes associated with drug treatments and non-pharmacologic interventions.About:

TL;DR: Overall, longer sleep duration was associated with lower adiposity indicators, better emotional regulation, better academic achievement, and better quality of life/well-being and there is a need for sleep restriction/extension interventions that examine the changes in different outcome measures against various amounts of objectively measured sleep to have a better sense of dose-response relationships.

Use of actigraphy for assessment in pediatric sleep research
TL;DR: The poor specificity to detect wake after sleep onset was consistently noted across devices and age groups, thus raising concerns about what is an "acceptable" level of specificity for actigraphy.

TL;DR: The SBSM Guide to Actigraphy Monitoring: Clinical and Research Applications is a guide to actigraphy monitoring for clinical and research applications that helps clinicians and researchers better understand the role ofigraphy in health and disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct comparison of two new actigraphs and polysomnography in children and adolescents.
TL;DR: Both new actigraph brands were found to have good sensitivity, but poorer specificity (to detect wake), suggesting the need for caution when comparing results across studies that use different brands of actigraphic devices.

The role of actigraphy in the study of sleep and circadian rhythms.

TL;DR: It is suggested that in the clinical setting, actigraphy is reliable for evaluating sleep patterns in patients with insomnia, for studying the effect of treatments designed to improve sleep, in the diagnosis of circadian rhythm disorders (including shift work), and in evaluating sleep in individuals who are less likely to tolerate PSG, such as infants and demented elderly.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors reviewed the current knowledge about the role of actigraphy in the evaluation of sleep disorders and concluded that actigraphys can provide useful information and that it may be a cost-effective method for assessing specific sleep disorders.

TL;DR: Actigraphy provides an acceptably accurate estimate of sleep patterns in normal, healthy adult populations and inpatients suspected of certain sleep disorders, and recent research utilizing actigraphy in the assessment and management of sleep disorders has allowed the development of evidence-based recommendations.

The role of actigraphy in the evaluation of sleep disorders.
TL;DR: The data suggest that actigraphy, despite its limitations, may be a useful, cost-effective method for assessing specific sleep disorders, such as insomnia and schedule disorders, and for monitoring their treatment process.
