Our findings highlight the potential of smartwatches for automated tremor detection as a valuable addition to conventional assessments, applicable in both clinical and home settings. %M 38506919 %R 10.2196/51249 %U https://formative.jmir.org/2024/1/e51249 %U https://doi.org/10.2196/51249 %U http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/38506919
