In a Wesper sleep study using FDA-cleared clinically validated devices, we measured the sleep performance of participants after switching from their old mattress to a Helix mattress.
Wesper is an FDA cleared, diagnostic device that can generate accurate insights about the quality of your breathing, amount of time snoring, sleeping positions, heart rate, sleep time, sleep efficiency, and sleep staging (wake / light / deep / REM).
Wesper can detect 4 sleep states - Wake, Light, Deep, and REM. Wesper uses your breathing, heart rate, and movement patterns to tell if you’re awake or asleep, as well as which sleep states you were in during the night.
About The Study
Participants were selected to test each Helix mattress model across the Core, Luxe, and Elite collections.
Phase 1: Participants tracked their sleep on a non-Helix mattress with the Wesper sleep device for approximately 2 weeks with the goal of recording 4-8 tests on their old mattress.
Participants were asked to track their sleep on nights when they had otherwise “normal days." For example, tracking was not recorded on travel days or particularly busy and stressful days.
Phase 2: Participants tracked their sleep on their new Helix mattress. Participants would sleep with their Wesper device for 4 weeks, 3-4 nights each week on their new Helix mattress.
Participants were asked to track their sleep on nights when they had otherwise "normal day," again excluding busy, stressful, or otherwise abnormal days.
82% of participants saw an increase in their deep sleep cycle.
Participants on average achieved 25 more minutes of deep sleep per night
Participants on average achieved 39 more minutes of overall sleep per night
*Based on an in-home study of participants who tracked sleep using a Wesper FDA-cleared validated devices to assist in the identification of sleep apnea. This is not a clinical trial. Some sleep performance metrics are investigational. Results should not be interpreted as guarantees or predictions of future outcomes for other individuals or groups.
In the analysis, participants who had not completed at least 4 nights of sleep were removed from the study. All other participants' data was taken into account for the final findings.
Every result presented in the study meets the standards to clinically evaluate a sleep study, according to Wesper.
