🔹 What if a simple wristband could revolutionize clinical trials? 🔹
🔹 Actigraphy and PPG technology are bringing real-time health monitoring out of the lab and into everyday life! 🔹

In this episode, we explore how wearable devices equipped with actigraphy and photoplethysmography (PPG) are transforming remote health monitoring in clinical trials. These small, wrist-worn devices provide continuous data on physical activity, heart rate, and heart rate variability (HRV), enabling researchers to track participants’ health effortlessly over long periods. By reducing the need for frequent clinic visits, these tools make clinical trials more accessible while capturing real-world, high-quality data.

This episode is based on a LinkedIn article from the Next-Gen Research Techniques newsletter. Read more here: 🔗 LinkedIn Article. Please note that this episode is narrated using an AI-generated voice.
