Comments for Sleep Review
Salimetrics launched a circadian phase assessment kit to measure dim light melatonin onset (DLMO) using saliva to keep tabs on a patient’s circadian phase with sample collection in the convenience of their own home or under the supervision of a clinician.
Now, sleep healthcare providers have a convenient way to assess the underlying physiology driving their patient’s circadian rhythm with Salimetrics’ Circadian Phase Assessment Kit.
Determining the timing of the melatonin onset and the amplitude of bedtime melatonin levels complements behavioral sleep phase information and actigraphy for a more comprehensive patient sleep evaluation.”The Circadian Phase Assessment Kit comes with everything required to collect and submit samples to the Salimetrics CLIA-Certified Laboratory.
Saliva collection kits can be ordered through a sleep clinic or shipped directly to the patient’s home.
Samples are self-collected using the included saliva collection devices and then placed into a supplied freezing container.
