Feasibility of Wearable Sensors to Assess Cognitive Load During Clinical Performance: Lessons Learned and Blueprint for Success
It is feasible to use wearable sensors across various clinical settings, including surgery. There are some limitations, and their implementation is context and device dependent. To scale sensor use in clinical research, surgeons must embrace human factors principles to optimize wearability, usability, reliability, and data security.
