Real-Time Monitoring in Home-Based Cardiac Rehabilitation Using Wrist-Worn Heart Rate Devices
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cardiac rehabilitation is a key program which significantly reduces the mortality in at-risk patients with ischemic heart disease; however, there is a lack of accessibility to these programs in health centers. To resolve this issue, home-based programs for cardiac rehabilitation have arisen as a potential solution. In this work, we present an approach based on a new generation of wrist-worn devices which have improved the quality of heart rate sensors and applications. Real-time monitoring of rehabilitation sessions based on high-quality clinical guidelines is embedded in a wearable application. For this, a fuzzy temporal linguistic approach models the clinical protocol. An evaluation based on cases is developed by a cardiac rehabilitation team.

An Activity Recognition Framework Deploying the Random Forest Classifier and A Single Optical Heart Rate Monitoring and Triaxial Accelerometer Wrist-Band †
Wrist-worn sensors have better compliance for activity monitoring compared to hip, waist, ankle or chest positions. However, wrist-worn activity monitoring is challenging due to the wide degree of freedom for the hand movements, as well as similarity of hand movements in different activities such as varying intensities of cycling. To strengthen the ability of wrist-worn sensors in detecting hum...

Background: Hematological disorders such as increased white blood cells and platelets (elevated white blood cell and platelets) in coronary heart disease (CHD) are associated with increased mortality. Exercise could specifically influence hematologic factors. The purpose of this study was to survey the response of hematological factors to home-based exercise rehabilitation and center-based card...
متن کاملWearable Medical Devices
A wearable medical device can be defined as a device that is autonomous, that is noninvasive, and that performs a specific medical function such as monitoring or support over a prolonged period of time. The term ‘‘wearable’’ implies that the support environment is either the human body or a piece of clothing. Handheld and portable devices are therefore not strictly speaking wearable, but this d...

The ability to measure physical activity through wrist-worn devices provides an opportunity for cardiovascular medicine. However, the accuracy of commercial devices is largely unknown. The aim of this work is to assess the accuracy of seven commercially available wrist-worn devices in estimating heart rate (HR) and energy expenditure (EE) and to propose a wearable sensor evaluation framework. W...
