Aaron Hartman, MD (speaker) explains that people may feel they sleep through the night but—when objectively tracked—are frequently waking up for short periods they don't remember. He argues sleep tracking helps reveal hidden awakenings and lack of deep sleep, which can explain daytime tiredness even when total sleep time seems adequate.

Sometimes in maintenance, you might feel like you're sleeping all night long, but you actually, if you track it, you'll see. No, you're waking up a ton. It's just that it's not long enough for you to remember. So that's something interesting to remember as well, which is important if you have sleep problems. I think tracking it helps you figure stuff like that out. You might be, I sleep all night long, I'm still tired. And you track it. You're like, well, there's no rim. There's no deep. And I was tossed into earning but didn't even realize it.
