Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Estimate cognitive performance impairment (reaction time, attention, working memory) from cumulative sleep debt using validated psychomotor vigilance task (PVT) models

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Cumulative sleep debt — The cumulative sleep debt recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the sleep-cognitive performance result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the cumulative sleep debt for the scenario you are assessing. Estimate cognitive performance impairment (reaction time, attention, working memory) from cumulative sleep debt using validated psychomotor vigilance task (PVT) models. Use the sleep-cognitive performance result to inform your calculation.
