Abstract in brief
- This study evaluated the accuracy of two optical heart rate wearables, Xiaomi Mi Band 2 and Garmin Vivosmart HR, compared to a chest strap monitor, in monitoring heart rate during exercise among young and older adults.
- Results showed that both devices generally provided acceptable accuracy, with error rates below 10%, indicating they are reliable for tracking heart rate in real-time during moderate activity.
- The study emphasizes the importance of validating wearable devices across different age groups and skin types, especially in populations like East Asians with Fitzpatrick skin types III or IV, to ensure accurate health monitoring.]
