简要总结
The investigators want to study how wearable devices can help track health changes in people when they are not feeling well. Normally, clinicians compare someone's vital signs, like heart rate, to average ranges from healthy folks. But what if clinicians compare these signs to the person's own normal when they were well? The investigators aim to check if wearable sensors can make this possible for many people. The investigators will look at heart rate differences when someone is admitted to the hospital compared to their stable days before. The investigators will see how their daily steps change a week before getting sick. This global study involves adults in emergency or acute care. Participation poses no risks, burdens, or immediate benefits to patients.
详细描述
Rationale:
Abnormalities of vital signs are quantified by comparison with 'usual' ranges, which are those observed in resting healthy populations. It might be more appropriate to compare vital sign values of an individual that is in distress with their own usual values recorded when they were stable and well. Wearable sensors might make this possible at scale.
Objectives:
- To quantify the difference between heart rate on admission to acute care compared to the previously recorded vital signs when 24 hours and 1 week prior of the same patient.
- The change in daily steps taken by the patient in the week prior to admission to acute care
- To assess the feasibility of using heart rate data from patients' own wearable sensors.
