简要总结
A reliable method for monitoring stress and burnout among medical students is critically needed. To address this gap, our team aims to utilize the cost-effective WHOOP strap 4.0 wearable device to continuously capture stress-relevant physiologic data (i.e., sleep hours, heart rate variability, respiration rate, resting heart rate) among up to 50 third-year medical students at 24 Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University for 6 months.
详细描述
Aim 1: To determine whether physiologic metrics of sleep and heart rate variability correlate with subjective assessments of medical student wellness in a 6-month period.
Hypothesis
Less total sleep hours will correlate with higher scores for Perceived Stress Scale-4, Medical Student Well-Being Index, and Patient Health Questionnaire-9, but lower heart rate variability will correlate with higher scores on Perceived Stress Scale-4, Medical Student Well Being Index, and Patient Health Questionnaire-9.
Aim 2: To determine whether physiologic metrics of sleep and heart rate variability correlate with performance on shelf examinations for clinical rotations in a 6-month period.
Hypothesis
Less total sleep hours and lower heart rate variability will correlate with poorer performance on shelf examinations.

研究组 & 干预措施
Treatment group
Subjects will have full remote monitoring data access throughout the entirety of the study (6 months).
干预措施: WHOOP strap 4.0 (full data access) (Device)
Control group
Subjects will be blinded to remote monitoring data for the first 3 months of the study followed by an unblinding and full access to remote monitoring data at the 3 month mark (continued for the remainder of the study).
干预措施: WHOOP strap 4.0 (partial data access) (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Total sleep hours per night
时间窗: 180 days
Sleep (hours per night) will be objectively measured nightly.
Medical Student Well-Being Index (MSWBI)
时间窗: 180 days
The MSWBI consists of 7 items, scored 0-7, with lower scores indicative of better medical student wellbeing. This survey will be administered biweekly.

- REM sleep hours, nightly(180 days)
- Average duty hours per week(180 days)
- Perceived Stress Scale-4(180 days)
- Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9)(180 days)
- Heart rate variability, nightly(180 days)
- Pulse oximetry, nightly(180 days)
- Resting heart rate, nightly(180 days)
