PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 2 days after informed consent

Population: All subjects were analyzed, with classifications compared against n = 5 clinician observed one minute long activities (lying, sitting, standing, walking, and stationary biking for "other" classification) per subject. For analysis of sleep classification accuracy, n = 5 one minute long samples were sampled across both nights of sleep per subject.

The device under test will classify a subjects activity into sleeping, standing, sitting, lying, walking and other activities as the subject performs various predefined activities, which are annotated by an observer. The device's Activity Classification will be compared to the observer's annotation. The percentage of correct classifications by the device against indicated visual observation is presented. The percent correct is not a per subject average, but is the percentage of all activity classifications which were correct when compared to ground truth observation.

Timeframe: 2 days after informed consent

Population: All subjects performed n=5 six minute walk tests on a treadmill. Instances in which the system classified the subject as "walking" for at least 95% of the activity were analyzed. The study device step count was compared to the manually observed step count, with the percent error of each test calculated. These errors were averaged and are presented.

The number of steps reported by the device under test during a 6 minute walk test will be compared to an observer's manual count of the number of steps taken.

Timeframe: 2 days after informed consent

Population: All subjects were analyzed, with each subject completing n = 5 repetitions of each sleeping / lying (supine, prone, lying left, lying right) and sitting / standing (upright, leaning backward, leaning forward, leaning left, leaning right) postures.

The device under test will classify a subjects activity into sleep posture, standing posture, and sitting posture as the subject performs various predefined activities, which are annotated by an observer. The device's Posture Classification will be compared to the observer's annotation. The percentage of correct classifications by the device against indicated visual observation is presented. The percent correct is not a per subject average, but is the percentage of all posture classifications which were correct when compared to ground truth observation.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 2 days after informed consent

Population: All subjects analyzed, with 6 sensor locations per subject evaluated for adhesion to skin at device removal. Subjects wore n = 4 sensors (two sensors at chest and thigh locations required for algorithmic outputs, and one sensor at shank and one at forearm locations) on Day 1 and n = 2 sensors (chest and thigh algorithm location sensors) on Day 2.

The level of sensor adhesion will be assessed by a 5 point scale (0- sensor is greater than or equal to 90% of sensor adhered, 4-sensor completely detached from subject). Sensors receiving scores of 0 and 1 will be determined to have acceptable adhesion, while scores of 2, 3, and 4 will be considered unacceptable adhesion. The percentage of sensors which had acceptable adhesion at sensor removal is presented.

1/30 • Number of events 1 • Adverse event data was available for collection for 3 days after the subject left the clinic. Subjects were evaluated throughout their 3 days at the clinic and a safety follow up phone call was conducted 3 days after their last clinic visit.
All adverse events (all-cause mortality, serious, and non-serious) were collected. The study was inherently low risk, as the test device is a non-significant risk device and study population was limited to healthy volunteers.
