- Abstract
Interest in sleep and circadian research in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) (Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) is growing; however, few studies have objectively measured sleep or circadian rhythms in people with these conditions. The purpose was to determine the feasibility of the use of wrist actigraphy, electronic sleep/activity diaries, and participant-collected saliva among adults with both active and inactive IBD. We conducted a 10-day feasibility study of adults aged 18 years to 60 years with IBD. We measured sleep and rest-activity rhythms with wrist actigraphy, self-reported sleep/activity using electronic diaries, and participant-collected saliva to compute salivary dim light melatonin onset. All 37 (100%) participants wore the wrist actigraphs, 91.8% (N = 34) participants completed at least 15 of the 18 electronic diaries, and 34 (91.9%) completed the saliva collection. It is feasible to use wrist actigraphy and electronic sleep/activity diaries in adult participants with inflammatory bowel disease.
