Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest detection by a wearable: the first real-life case

This first real-life case shows feasibility of cardiac arrest detection using wrist-derived photoplethysmography and accelerometry. Further studies are warranted to validate the algorithm in additional cardiac arrest cases, and to minimize false positive alerts during daily-life use. Once implemented, automated cardiac arrest detection and alerting has the potential to shorten treatment delays and improve survival.

Abstract

This first real-life case shows feasibility of cardiac arrest detection using wrist-derived photoplethysmography and accelerometry. Further studies are warranted to validate the algorithm in additional cardiac arrest cases, and to minimize false positive alerts during daily-life use. Once implemented, automated cardiac arrest detection and alerting has the potential to shorten treatment delays and improve survival.
