          Abstract

          Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é problematizar as formas de governo do corpo e da saúde requeridas aos usuários dos aplicativos do Apple Watch. A pesquisa abrange o uso do “relógio inteligente” em uma genealogia sobre a concepção de captura de informações, indução e notificação de ações que afetam as condutas dos sujeitos, colocando-os em ritmos e ritos realizáveis e provocando uma sensação de maior governo sobre o corpo, parte de um aceite de desgoverno perante a máquina. Os resultados apontam que as tecnologias vestíveis se tornaram “próteses” que capturam informações em tempo real, operando como um “órgão confessor” para o governo dos corpos e sua normalização, gerenciadas pelo mercado como um biocapital.

          Abstract The objective of this article is to question the ways in which Apple Watch applications require users to manage their body and health. The survey describes the use of “smart watches” within a genealogy of the concept of capturing information, inducing and notifying users of activities that affect their behavior, placing users into achievable rhythms and routines, and creating the perception of better bodily management, all part of accepting the notion of granting control to machines. The results indicate that wearable technologies became “prosthetics” capturing information in real time, acting as a “confession mechanism” for governing and normalizing the body, and are managed by the market as biocapital.

          Accuracy in Wrist-Worn, Sensor-Based Measurements of Heart Rate and Energy Expenditure in a Diverse Cohort

          The ability to measure physical activity through wrist-worn devices provides an opportunity for cardiovascular medicine. However, the accuracy of commercial devices is largely unknown. The aim of this work is to assess the accuracy of seven commercially available wrist-worn devices in estimating heart rate (HR) and energy expenditure (EE) and to propose a wearable sensor evaluation framework. We evaluated the Apple Watch, Basis Peak, Fitbit Surge, Microsoft Band, Mio Alpha 2, PulseOn, and Samsung Gear S2. Participants wore devices while being simultaneously assessed with continuous telemetry and indirect calorimetry while sitting, walking, running, and cycling. Sixty volunteers (29 male, 31 female, age 38 ± 11 years) of diverse age, height, weight, skin tone, and fitness level were selected. Error in HR and EE was computed for each subject/device/activity combination. Devices reported the lowest error for cycling and the highest for walking. Device error was higher for males, greater body mass index, darker skin tone, and walking. Six of the devices achieved a median error for HR below 5% during cycling. No device achieved an error in EE below 20 percent. The Apple Watch achieved the lowest overall error in both HR and EE, while the Samsung Gear S2 reported the highest. In conclusion, most wrist-worn devices adequately measure HR in laboratory-based activities, but poorly estimate EE, suggesting caution in the use of EE measurements as part of health improvement programs. We propose reference standards for the validation of consumer health devices (http://precision.stanford.edu/).
