The Impact of Wearable Device Enabled Health Initiative on Physical Activity and Sleep
OBJECTIVES The Personal Health Management Study (PHMS) is an assessment of the effect of a voluntary employee-facing health initiative using a commercially-available wearable device implemented among 565 employees of Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The results of the initiative on physical activity (measured as steps) and sleep is reported. METHODS This was a 12-month, prospective,...
متن کاملPhysical Activity Recognition from Accelerometer Data using a Wearable Device
Activity Recognition is an emerging field of research, born from the larger fields of ubiquitous computing, context-aware computing and multimedia. Recognizing everyday life activities will be in the short future a fundamental application in pervasive computing. In our work, we developed a wearable system easy to use and comfortable to bring. We obtain very good classification accuracy for each...
متن کاملPhysical Activity, Health Benefits, and Mortality Risk
A plethora of epidemiologic evidence from large studies supports unequivocally an inverse, independent, and graded association between volume of physical activity, health, and cardiovascular and overall mortality. This association is evident in apparently healthy individuals, patients with hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular disease, regardless of body weight. Moreover, t...
متن کاملAssessing physical activity using wearable monitors: measures of physical activity.
BACKGROUND Physical activity may be defined broadly as "all bodily actions produced by the contraction of skeletal muscle that increase energy expenditure above basal level." Physical activity is a complex construct that can be classified into major categories qualitatively, quantitatively, or contextually. The quantitative assessment of physical activity using wearable monitors is grounded in ...
متن کاملPsoc Based Wearable Device for Health Monitoring
Recently health has been a very important parameter in the mind of people, so a monitoring system is required to keep them alert about their health. Monitoring systems are also required in Intensive Care Unit of arious hospitals. Hospital staff faces difficulty in handling devices due to their bulkiness and huge number of wires while giving medication to the patient. Monitoring system requireme...
