Digital health wearables: Use by people aged over 55 years |
Using digital health wearables
| 8% |
If you are aged 55 years or over, we would like to know about your experiences of using digital health wearables for monitoring your health and/or self-management of your health.
The survey will take 6-8 minutes to complete.
Our focus is on fitness trackers, commonly referred to as activity trackers, wearable fitness devices which track your daily fitness levels. Examples include wrist-bands from Fitbit or Jawbone, or smart watches from Apple or Samsung, or smart rings or bracelets. Typically these devices record steps walked, heart rate, sleep patterns, or calories expended.
