A feasible application of the smart wristband in practice requires very few false cardiac arrest alarms, as the emergency medical services should not be unnecessarily activated. Therefore, in the next phase, we will investigate how often a false alarm (false positive) occurs. We will also explore ways to prevent these false alarms, such as adjusting the algorithm, incorporating additional sensor data, or allowing users to cancel the alarm manually. For this study, we aim to recruit 300 healthy volunteers and patients to wear the wristband for a period of two months.
This study started in April 2024. We already have over 100 participants, but we are still looking for more volunteers. Are you interested in participating?
