Background Polysomnography is the gold standard for measuring and detecting sleep patterns. In recent years, activity wristbands have become popular because they record continuous data in real time. Hence, comprehensive validation studies are needed to analyze performance reliability of these devices recording parameters. Objective This study compared one best-selling wristbands, Xiaomi Mi Band 5, against polysomnography stages. Methods was carried out at a hospital A Coruña, Spain. People...

Background: Lower quantity and poorer sleep quality are common in most older adults, especially for those who live a nursing home. The use of wearable devices, which measure some parameters such as the stages, could help to determine influence daily activity among home residents. Therefore, this study aims analyse its changes concerning health status people lived home, by monitoring participants year with Xiaomi Mi Band 2. Methods: This is longitudinal set [Details omitted double-anonymized...

(1) Background: Sleep disorders are a common problem for public health since they considered potential triggers and predictors of some mental physical diseases. Evaluating the sleep quality person may be first step to prevent further issues that diminish their independence life. Polysomnography (PSG) is “gold standard” studies, but this technique presents drawbacks. Thus, study intends assess capability new Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 5 used as tool self-assessment. (2) Methods: This will an...

The development of digital supports for people with autism has increased considerably in recent years. Technology designers and developers have interpreted the needs learning styles different ways. As a result, there are generic, non-specific or heterogeneous guidelines design technology autism. This study aims to identify describe recommended elements support graphical user interface children Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), considering stakeholders’ perspective, engaged computer application...

(1) Background: Work stress is one of the most relevant issues in public health. It has a significant impact on health, especially development mental disorders, causing occupational imbalance. There growing interest tools with positive effect workers. To this end, wearable technology becoming increasingly popular, as it measures biometric variables like heartbeat, activity, and sleep. This information may be used to assess person suffering, which could allow coping strategies, both at...

Background: Presently the use of technological devices such as wearable has emerged. Physical activity monitoring with sensors is an easy and non-intrusive approach to encourage preventive care for older adults. It may be useful follow a continuous assessment risk falling. The objective explore relationship between daily measured by Xiaomi Mi Band 2 falling adults residing in or attending facilities. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on three different institutions located...

Polysomnography (PSG) is currently the accepted gold standard for sleep studies, as it measures multiple variables that lead to a clear diagnosis of any disorder. However, has some drawbacks, since can only be performed by qualified technicians, high cost and complexity very invasive. In last years, actigraphy been used along PSG studies. this study, we intend assess capability new Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 5 an tool. Sleep from recorded in same night will obtained further analysed their...

CuidaconTIC is a technological platform, available in web and mobile versions, created to support informal carers of older and/or disabled people. It was developed through the TechQoL4Carers project, which aims improve quality life, occupational balance, self-management health empowerment carers. offers set services designed meet daily needs this population, including collection data wearable devices (specifically with Xiaomi Smart Band 7), personalised notification system based on collected...

The recent advances in virtual reality allow for the creation of highly realistic and immersive environments. purpose this project is to develop a application tailored older adults people with intellectual disabilities work on various physical cognitive aspects through gamification. This tool features seven activities adjustable difficulty levels accessibility options, providing users an engaging personalized experience enhance cognitive, abilities, mental agility.

Virtual reality (VR) allows us to simulate everyday life environments with realism and in an immersive environment, the use of appropriate hardware. People functional diversity, either because environmental barriers or their reduced mobility, have fewer opportunities participate different daily activities risk situations outdoors. Therefore, VR can be a technological resource for these people access, try out, experience scenarios, offering new participation experiences. aim this proposal is...

Nowadays, the use of wearable devices is still emerging. Monitoring with sensors an easy and non-intrusive approach to encourage preventive care for older adults. Wearable are becoming assessment tool evaluating physical activity sleep, among other biomedical parameters. The objective present study explore daily sleep adults from three nursing homes, as measured by Xiaomi Mi Band 2. results showed that people a greater number steps (representing activity) could be related lower probability...

Introduction: Stress at work is a factor that has repercussions on both personal and health level, as well productivity work. Objective: To establish if the wearables are devices capable of determining level labor stress working people in research center. Methodology: This pilot study followed up different variables during 6 months 11 participants In study, Xiaomi MiB 3 were used, which recorded continuously monitored physical activity sleep participants. On other hand, specific evaluation...

The present paper presents a set of experiences with the use Xiaomi Mi Band (from version 1 to 5) in different populations but purpose monitoring daily life and occupational performance participants. Monitoring wearable sensors is an easy non-intrusive approach encourage preventive care by therapists or other health providers facilitate professional practice.

This study sought to compare the effectiveness of one top-selling activity wristbands, Xiaomi Mi Band 5, with polysomnography in measurement sleep stages. Conducted at a hospital A Coruña, Spain, this recruited individuals already participating unit. The encompassed total 45 adults. 5 demonstrated an overall accuracy. Notably, it tended overestimate time, light sleep, and deep compared polysomnography. Conversely, underestimated wake after onset REM measured by holds potential as tool for...
