New Wearable Patch Accelerates Entry Into REM Sleep by 43 Minutes

A new study found that wearable patch devices can accelerate entry into rapid eye movement sleep. In a study of 27 participants, the device shortened time to REM sleep by 43 minutes.

Scientists developed a new wearable patch device to help people enter REM sleep faster. The device stimulates the brain to help people enter rapid eye movement sleep phase more quickly. In a study of 27 participants, the device shortened the time to enter REM sleep by 43 minutes. Rapid eye movement sleep is extremely important for human cognitive function. This new device does not require medication or surgery to help improve sleep quality. Research staff stated that this discovery brings new hope for sleep disorder patients.
