wearable device

Procedure: - analytic model using increase in heart rate & decrease in sleep activity [1] - used to assess heart rate at rest & during exercise* * reasonably accurate at measuring heart rate during rest in sinus rhythm but less accurate during atrial fibrillation or exercise [3] Notes: - use of deidentified data from wearable-sensor databases can enhance tracking of seasonal influenza [1] - use of wearable device may predict heart failure readmissions [2] - adhesive sensor is worn on the chest - sensor collects electrocardiographic data & measurements of skin impedance, temperature, activity, & posture - datais uploaded them to a cloud server via smartphone - machine learning used to create individualized baseline standards & an algorithm to generate a clinical alert - clinical alert predicts heat failure hospitalization within 10 days with a sensitivity of 76% when specificity was set at 85% [2]
