A systematic review on the detection of COVID-19 through wearables was published in The Lancet.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The monitoring of physiological parameters such as heart rate, respiratory rate, body temperature, is important to detect the presence of infections and cases of COVID-19. These parameters are perceptible by mobile devices such as wearables, which can act as "digital biomarkers" in the early detection of infections.<\/p>

In The Lancet, a systematic review was published that collects and evaluates the performance of statistical and algorithmic models that use data from wearables<\/em> for the possible detection of COVID-19.<\/p>

For investigators, they searched databases such as MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, CENTRAL, International Clinical Trials Registry Platform, and ClinicalTrials.gov. And of 3 thousand 196 identified studies, they analyzed 12 articles and 12 study protocols.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

"Some authors relied on statistical analysis to detect differences between or within participants, while others used machine learning algorithms," the review explains.<\/p>

Although the accuracy of the algorithms varied (AUC 0 52\u20130 92), they were able to identify the symptoms most frequently associated with COVID-19 infection. For example, heart rate, temperature and respiratory rate. Likewise, these were the most analyzed variables in practically all the studies.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Likewise, the authors of the review recognized that the evidence around wearables and the early detection of COVID-19 is still at a very early stage, so larger and more controlled studies are needed, with the participation of populations. larger and more diverse.<\/p>

The authors conclude that \u201calthough wearable devices could help, this systematic review highlights the need for well-designed and controlled studies to robustly identify whether wearable devices can accurately detect SARS-CoV-2 infection before the onset of SARS-CoV-2 infection. symptoms or in asymptomatic people compared to the current gold standard diagnostic method.<\/p>

This is due to the fact that some studies had health professionals as participants, who had easier access to PCR tests; other studies were based on statistical models rather than algorithms; and even some studies did not use conventional devices that are placed on the wrist, but rather rings or devices that were placed in the throat area.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Una revisi\u00f3n sistem\u00e1tica sobre la detecci\u00f3n de COVID-19 a trav\u00e9s de wearables fue publicada en The Lancet. El monitoreo de par\u00e1metros fisiol\u00f3gicos como frecuencia cardiaca, frecuencia respiratoria, temperatura corporal, es importante para detectar la presencia de contagios y casos de COVID-19. Estos par\u00e1metros son perceptibles por dispositivos m\u00f3viles como wearables, que pueden actuar como “biomarcadores digitales” en la detecci\u00f3n temprana de infecciones. En The Lancet, fue publicado una revisi\u00f3n sistem\u00e1tica que recoge y eval\u00faa el rendimiento de modelos estad\u00edsticos y algor\u00edtmicos que utilizan datos de wearables para la posible detecci\u00f3n de COVID-19. Para los investigadores realizaron b\u00fasquedas en bases de datos como MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, CENTRAL, International Clinical Trials Registry Platform y ClinicalTrials.gov. Y de 3 mil 196 estudios identificados, analizaron 12 art\u00edculos y 12 protocolos de estudio. \u201cAlgunos autores se basaron en el an\u00e1lisis estad\u00edstico para detectar diferencias entre los participantes o dentro de ellos, mientras que otros utilizaron algoritmos de aprendizaje autom\u00e1tico\u201d, explica la revisi\u00f3n. Aunque la precisi\u00f3n de los algoritmos vari\u00f3 (AUC 0\u00b752\u20130\u00b792), lograron identificar cu\u00e1les son los s\u00edntomas asociados con mayor frecuencia a un contagio de COVID-19. Por ejemplo, la frecuencia cardiaca, la temperatura y la frecuencia respiratoria. De igual forma, estos fueron las variables m\u00e1s analizadas en pr\u00e1cticamente todos los estudios. Asimismo, los autores de la revisi\u00f3n reconocieron que la evidencia alrededor de los wearables y la detecci\u00f3n temprana de COVID-19, contin\u00faa a\u00fan en una etapa muy temprana, Por lo que se necesitan estudios m\u00e1s amplios y controlados, que cuenten con la participaci\u00f3n de poblaciones m\u00e1s grandes y diversas. Los autores concluyen que \u201caunque los dispositivos port\u00e1tiles podr\u00edan ayudar, esta revisi\u00f3n sistem\u00e1tica destaca la necesidad de estudios bien dise\u00f1ados y controlados para identificar de manera s\u00f3lida si los dispositivos port\u00e1tiles pueden detectar con precisi\u00f3n la infecci\u00f3n por SARS-CoV-2 antes de la aparici\u00f3n de los s\u00edntomas o en personas asintom\u00e1ticas en comparaci\u00f3n con el m\u00e9todo de diagn\u00f3stico est\u00e1ndar de oro actual\u201d. Esto debido a que algunos estudios tuvieron como participantes a profesionales de salud, quienes accedieron con mayor facilidad a pruebas PCR; otros estudios se basaron en modelos estad\u00edsticos antes que en algoritmos; e incluso algunos estudios, no utilizaron dispositivos convencionales que se colocan en la mu\u00f1eca, sino anillos u dispositivos que se colocaron en el \u00e1rea de en la garganta.
