Comparison of Consumer Smartwatch and Research‐Grade Accelerometer‐Derived Step Counts in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Objective, scalable measures of function are needed in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Research‐grade accelerometers are promising but may be difficult to deploy for prolonged remote monitoring, whereas consumer smartwatches offer a practical alternative. We evaluated the feasibility of long‐term smartwatch monitoring in
