  • Are Currently Available Wearable Devices for Activity Tracking and Heart Rate Monitoring Accurate, Precise, and Medically Beneficial?
    Case Report Healthc Inform Res. 2015 October;21(4):315-320. http://dx.doi.org/10.4258/hir.2015.21.4.315 pISSN 2093-3681 • eISSN 2093-369X Are Currently Available Wearable Devices for Activity Tracking and Heart Rate Monitoring Accurate, Precise, and Medically Beneficial? Fatema El-Amrawy, B.Pharm1, Mohamed Ismail Nounou, PhD1,2 1Department of Pharmaceutics, Faculty of Pharmacy, Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt; 2Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Appalachian College of Pharmacy, Oakwood, VA, USA Objectives: The new wave of wireless technologies, fitness trackers, and body sensor devices can have great impact on health- care systems and the quality of life. However, there have not been enough studies to prove the accuracy and precision of these trackers. The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy, precision, and overall performance of seventeen wearable devices currently available compared with direct observation of step counts and heart rate monitoring. Methods: Each par- ticipant in this study used three accelerometers at a time, running the three corresponding applications of each tracker on an Android or iOS device simultaneously. Each participant was instructed to walk 200, 500, and 1,000 steps. Each set was repeated 40 times. Data was recorded after each trial, and the mean step count, standard deviation, accuracy, and precision were estimated for each tracker. Heart rate was measured by all trackers (if applicable), which support heart rate monitor- ing, and compared to a positive control, the Onyx Vantage 9590 professional clinical pulse oximeter. Results: The accuracy of the tested products ranged between 79.8% and 99.1%, while the coefficient of variation (precision) ranged between 4% and 17.5%.
