How can we make a new #DigitalHealth solution, or new #digital measures, fit for real-word use? One key requirement is a well-designed study that addresses pertinent research questions related to the robustness and validity of the digital measures; the disease concepts that they capture; how they translate from a laboratory setting to a real-world setting. To address these research questions, we have designed a clinical study that simultaneously collects sensor-based gait and balance data from smartphones and reference measurement systems (IMUs, a motion capture system, force plates, and/ or video recordings), with data collected in both a laboratory and remote, real-world setting. Combined with a rich set of patient-reported outcomes, this dataset will enable us to investigate the impact of real-world confounders on our digital measures (e.g., how does the on-body location of the smartphone affect the digital measures); allow us to explore their validity, robustness, and consistency; and aid in their interpretation. We are pleased to share with you the protocol of this study, which has been recently published in Digital Health https://lnkd.in/eC_EStMN! We look forward to sharing with you in future our findings from this study and from our continued effort of shaping the future of digital health in #MultipleSclerosis. I’d like to thank my colleagues and co-authors without whom this work would not have been possible: Mattia Zanon, Tjitske Boonstra, Lorenza Angelini, Dimitar Stanev, Gabriela Chan, Lisa Bunn, Frank Dondelinger, Richard Hosking, Jenny Freeman, Jeremy Hobart, Jonathan Marsden, Licinio Craveiro #smartphone #gait #balance #ClinicalTrial #sensors

Increasing physical activity improves health – yet less than 10% of clinicians discuss physical activity with their most at-risk patients. In STAT, Google’s Head of Clinical Research, Health Economics and Outcomes Research partners with leaders at the @American Heart Association, Physical Activity Alliance and Digital Medicine Society (DiMe) to highlight evidence and guidelines promoting physical activity as a standard of care, and how clinicians are increasingly using data from wearable devices like Fitbit (now part of Google) in physical exams and prescribing wearables to promote activity.

Researchers developed new method for detecting heart failure with a smartphone. #Heartfailure is a serious condition that affects tens of millions of people worldwide. Its symptoms can be caused by several conditions, making diagnosis challenging. However, researchers at the University of Turku and CardioSignal have developed a non-invasive technique for measuring cardiac vibrations on the chest using #gyrocardiography and a smartphone's built-in motion sensors. In a recent study, the technique was tested on approximately 1,000 people, including around 200 heart failure patients, at the Turku and Helsinki University Hospitals in Finland and Stanford University Hospital in the US. The study compared the data provided by the motion sensors in the heart failure patients and patients without heart disease. The results were promising and suggest that this new method could greatly assist doctors in diagnosing heart failure. This breakthrough could revolutionize the way we diagnose heart failure and could have a significant impact on the millions of people affected by this condition worldwide.

We need to have a discussion, as an industry. What do we do, when a patient comes in, with a wearable digital product that have diagnosed the patient correctly. Because that is what is happening right now. Digital healthcare as a trend is expanding, and products like smartwatches are getting smarter - to the point where they detect disease, before the doctor, making this kind of healthcare patient-driven. When a watch shows you, a healthcare professional, a diagnosis - would you trust it? It has been approved by european and danish cardiologists, that doctors should accept these diagnosis, as were they based on tried and true methods and equipment. But still, would you? Digital healthcare is a growing field, and we can only expect to see more of this. More and more devices will pass through the processes of becoming certified medical devices. #GreenInnovation #DigitalHealthcare
