Research conducted by the World Health Organisation (WHO) in 2018 demonstrated that the worldwide threat of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) has increased compared to previous years. CVDs are very dangerous: if timely treatment is not performed, these conditions could become irreversible and lead to sudden death. Prescriptive measures include physical exercises and monitoring of the heart rate (HR). Despite the existence of various HR monitoring devices (or HMDs), a major challenge remains their availability, particularly to people in lower-income countries. Unfortunately, it is also this segment of the population that is the most vulnerable to CVDs. Accordingly, this led the authors to propose the design for an easily constructible state-of-the-art HMD that attempts to provide a highly accessible, lower-cost, and long-lasting solution that would be more affordable and accessible to these low-income communities.

UNSTRUCTURED Wearable sensor technology could have an important role for clinical research and in delivering health care. Accordingly, such technology should undergo rigorous evaluation prior to market launch, and its performance should be supported by evidence-based marketing claims. Many studies have been published attempting to validate wrist-worn photoplethysmography (PPG)-based heart rate monitoring devices, but their contrasting results question the utility of this technology. The reason why many validations did not provide conclusive evidence of the validity of wrist-worn PPG-based heart rate monitoring devices is mostly methodological. The validation strategy should consider the nature of data provided by both the investigational and reference devices. There should be uniformity in the statistical approach to the analyses employed in these validation studies. The investigators should test the technology in the population of interest and in a setting appropriate for intended use. Device industries and the scientific community require robust standards for the validation of new wearable sensor technology.

Wrist-worn photoplethysmography (PPG) heart rate monitoring devices are increasingly used in clinical applications despite the potential for data missingness and inaccuracy. This paper provides an analysis of the intermittency of experimental wearable data recordings. Devices recorded heart rate with gaps of 5 or more minutes 41.6% of the time and 15 or more minutes 3.8% of the time.

In this article, we report on a multimethod qualitative study designed to explore the emotional experiences of students in the classroom setting. The purpose of the study was threefold: (1) to explore the correspondence among nonverbal expressions, subjective feelings, and physiological reactivity (heart rate changes) of students’ emotions in the classroom; (2) to examine the relationship between students’ emotions and their competence and value appraisals; and (3) to determine whether task difficulty matters in emotional experiences. We used multiple methods (nonverbal coding scheme, video stimulated recall interview, and heart rate monitoring) to acquire data on emotional experiences of six grade 7 students. Concurrent correspondence analyses of the emotional indices revealed that coherence between emotional response systems, although apparent, is not conclusive. The relationship between appraisals and emotions was evident, but the effect of task difficulty appears to be minimal.
