Note: Improvement in sleep is indicated by an increase in minutes from Pod OFF Baseline to Pod ON in deep sleep, REM sleep, light sleep, total sleep time, REM sleep onset, deep sleep onset latency, or sleep efficiency (see Section 2.5 for details). Improvements in the number of awakenings and minutes of wake time were indicated by a decrease in these sleep metrics. Bolded values indicate significance at p < 0.05; SE: standard error; 95% CI: 95% confidence intervals.
