Consumer wearables<\/a> that measure heart rate and physical activity provide similar clinical value to standard hospital tests for atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure, new research has found.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The study, published in Nature Medicine,<\/em> examined whether a commercially-available fitness tracker and smartphone could continuously monitor the response to medications, and provide clinical information similar to in-person hospital assessment.<\/p>\n

The wearable devices, consisting of a wrist band and connected smartphone, collected a vast amount of data on the response to two different medications prescribed as part of a clinical trial called RATE-AF, funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR).<\/p>\n

Researchers used artificial intelligence (AI) to help analyse over 140 million datapoints for heart<\/a> rate in 53 individuals over 20 weeks.<\/p>\n

They found that digoxin and beta-blockers had a similar effect on heart rate, even after accounting for differences in physical activity.<\/p>\n

This was in contrast to previous studies that had only assessed the short-term impact of digoxin.<\/p>\n

A neural network that took account of missing information was developed to avoid an over-optimistic view of the wearable data stream.<\/p>\n

Using this approach, the team found that the wearables<\/a> were equivalent to standard tests often used in hospitals and clinical trials that require staff time and resources.<\/p>\n

The average age of participants in the study was 76 years, highlighting possible future value regardless of age or experience with technology.<\/p>\n

Professor Dipak Kotecha from the Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences at the University of Birmingham and the lead author of the study said: \u201cPeople across the world are increasingly using wearable devices in their daily lives to help monitor their activity and health status.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n

“This study shows the potential to use this new technology to assess the response to treatment and make a positive contribution to the routine care of patients.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHeart conditions such as atrial fibrillation and heart failure are expected to double in prevalence over the next few decades, leading to a large burden on patients as well as substantial healthcare cost.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis study is an exciting showcase for how artificial intelligence<\/a> can support new ways to help treat patients better.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
