Summary

The Effect of Feedback on Physical Activity Surveillance using Wearable Device-Smartphone Application for Resolution of Metabolic Syndrome in Aged 60 or older; a 12-Week Randomized Control Study

Detailed description

Research on whether wearable device interventions can effectively prevent metabolic syndrome remains insufficient. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of feedback on clinical indicators in patients with metabolic syndrome aged 60 or older on activities measured using wearable devices, such as smartphone apps. Patients aged 60 or older diagnosed with metabolic syndrome were recruited and prescribed to survive for 12 weeks using wrist-worn devices (B.BAND, B Life Inc, Korea). The block randomization method was used to distribute the participants between an intervention group (n=20) and control group (n=20). In the intervention group, an experienced study coordinator provided feedback on physical activity to individuals through telephone counseling every other week.
