Overdose Detection Among High-Risk Opioid Users Via a Wearable Chest Sensor in a Supervised Injecting Facility: Protocol for an Observational Study

Overdose Detection Among High-Risk Opioid Users Via a Wearable Chest Sensor in a Supervised Injecting Facility: Protocol for an Observational Study

The study will use the Pneumo Wave biosensor and data collection platform, which includes a wearable biosensor that attaches to the press-stud on a supplied and approved ECG electrode. The biosensor can be placed in a number of locations on the chest and diaphragm area and automatically connects to a Data Hub via Bluetooth (Figure 1). In this study, the Hub will be a router-type device or a mobile computing platform (app running on a tablet or phone).

Detecting Prolonged Stress in Real Life Using Wearable Biosensors and Ecological Momentary Assessments: Naturalistic Experimental Study

Detecting Prolonged Stress in Real Life Using Wearable Biosensors and Ecological Momentary Assessments: Naturalistic Experimental Study

In sum, combining a wearable biosensor with minimally invasive mood assessment might offer the best approach to detecting stress in both healthy and clinical populations, offering a more feasible approach than full EMA batteries. Besides demonstrating the utility of physiological monitoring, our results highlight the importance of individualized approaches in stress detection.

Identifying Desired Features That Would Be Acceptable and Helpful in a Wrist-Worn Biosensor–Based Alcohol Intervention: Interview Study Among Adults Who Drink Heavily

Identifying Desired Features That Would Be Acceptable and Helpful in a Wrist-Worn Biosensor–Based Alcohol Intervention: Interview Study Among Adults Who Drink Heavily

The desired features that would maximize interest in using a wrist-worn biosensor for alcohol intervention were grouped into five themes: (1) features that would influence willingness to use the biosensor, (2) personalized messaging, (3) preference for time wearing the biosensor, (4) sharing data with others, and (5) mental health support. A description of each theme is provided in Textbox 1.

A Multimodal Mobile Sleep Intervention for Young Adults Engaged in Risky Drinking: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

A Multimodal Mobile Sleep Intervention for Young Adults Engaged in Risky Drinking: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Participants will also wear a new, wrist-worn transdermal alcohol biosensor, BACTrack Skyn, and will receive US $1 per day for wearing it (total US $14). Unlike the large SCRAM biosensor, which relies on active airflow, the smaller Skyn biosensor relies on passive airflow and permits more regular TAC sampling (ie, every 20 seconds) [78]. Preliminary evidence from controlled laboratory studies suggests that Skyn is sensitive to alcohol consumption changes [78].
