Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to compare the accuracy of various activity trackers in measuring physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE) in adults over 60, especially among women with cardiovascular risks.
- Thirty-four participants engaged in simulated activities in a lab while their PAEE was measured by indirect calorimetry and various activity trackers.
- Results showed that research-grade trackers (ActiGraph and Actiheart) performed better than consumer-grade ones (Fitbit and OMRON), but all trackers had varying degrees of accuracy, highlighting the need for caution in interpreting their data for health assessments.
