Algorithms and Measures
Data-Informed Research for Life-Changing Treatments
Digital health technologies (DHTs) are used to advance clinical measures in many areas of research and development. When collecting data through noninvasive, patient-centric devices, DHTs can reveal meaningful insights into how people function in the real world. ActiGraph devices apply transparent algorithms to study physical activity, sleep, and mobility.
Sleep
Sleep is the subject of increased clinical research, as both a primary disorder and a symptom of another disease.
Physical Activity
Physical activity and functioning are essential to understanding the clinical outcomes across a wide range of chronic conditions.
Gait and Mobility
Gait and mobility disorders are major causes of falls, and predict future falls more consistently than other identified risk factors.
Vital Signs
Remote, Continuous Vital Sign Measures Unlock New and Deeper Patient Insights.
Cardinal Symptoms
Tracking and collecting data on cardinal symptoms in chronic diseases improves measurement accuracy over time.
