This study will be conducted by using two devices (Apollo and Biostrap) for monitoring of baseline physiologic variables and heart rate variability. The biostrap will be worn by residents and will monitor heart rate, heart rate variability, respiratory rate, sleep patterns, steps, etc. The Apollo is a pulse generator device aimed at modulating heart rate variability for (hopefully) reduction in stress and improving performance in and around the hospital. Resident neurosurgeons will wear the biostrap for a two week cycle and follow that with the addition of the Apollo device for heart rate variability modulation.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Biostrap/Apollo Device Use | Other | Participants wear a Biostrap wearable device which measures steps, heart rate, heart rate variability, sleep metrics, and quantitative data in typical day-to-day activities of residents. Participants then again wear Biostrap except now also with the Apollo device which is worn around the ankle and is suggested to modulate heart rate variability and perceived stress of participants. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change from baseline to two month heart rate variability | Quantitative (average range, beats per minute) | Baseline, Two Month. Analyzed via paired t-test and assessing change between each outcome time point |
| Change from baseline to two month Perceived Stress Scale | Questionnaire, 14 point form/scale ranging from 0-50 with higher scores signifiying increased stress | Baseline, Two Month. Analyzed via paired t-test and assessing change between each outcome time point |
| Change from baseline to two month Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (QIDS) | Questionnaire ranging from 0-27 and measuring major depressive symptomatology. Higher scores signify more severe depression. | Baseline, Two Month. Analyzed via paired t-test and assessing change between each outcome time point |
