摘要
背景:虽然消费者可以使用许多可穿戴设备来监测和跟踪身体活动,但相对较少的研究来确定它们在促进健康方面的功效。方法:本文根据截至2016年9月PubMed和Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection中相关检索词的文献检索,总结消费者可穿戴设备在促进健康行为方面的使用数据。结果:共检索到274篇文献。通过筛选摘要或全文文章,确定了6项前后试验和7项随机对照试验。在最初的试验中,消费者可穿戴设备已被证明可以增加身体活动并帮助用户减肥。然而,迄今为止完成的研究数量较少,受样本量小、研究持续时间短以及研究结果的不确定普遍性的限制。结论:未来的研究应采用随机对照试验研究设计,扩大样本量,延长研究周期,以更好地确立可穿戴设备促进身体活动的功效。需要进一步的研究来确定可穿戴设备在社区环境中促进身体活动和减肥的可行性和有效性,包括受健康差异影响的社区。还需要对儿童和青少年进行重点研究。
Use of Consumer Wearable Devices to Promote Physical Activity: A Review of Health Intervention Studies.
Background: Although many wearable devices for monitoring and tracking physical activity are available to consumers, relatively few research studies have been conducted to determine their efficacy in promoting health.
Methods: In this article, data on the use of consumer wearable devices in promoting healthy behaviors are summarized based upon bibliographic searches in PubMed and Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection with relevant search terms through September 2016.
Results: A total of 274 articles were identified in the bibliographic searches. By screening abstracts or full-text articles, six pre/post test trials and seven randomized controlled trials were identified. In initial trials, consumer wearable devices have been shown to increase physical activity and help users lose weight. However, the number of studies completed to date is small and limited by small sample sizes, short study durations, and uncertain generalizability of the findings.
Conclusions: Future studies should utilize randomized controlled trial research designs, larger sample sizes, and longer study periods to better establish the efficacy of wearable devices in promoting physical activity. Additional research is needed to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of wearable devices in promoting physical activity and weight loss in community settings including communities affected by health disparities. Studies focusing on children and adolescents are also needed.
