Abstract
The reliability of the results of self monitoring of the vitals in the wild using medical devices or wearables or camera based smart phone solutions is subject to variabilities such as position of placement, hardware of the device and environmental factors. In this first of its kind study, we demonstrate that this variability in self monitoring of Blood Pressure (BP), Blood oxygen saturation level (SpO2) and Heart rate (HR) is statistically significant (p<0.05) on 203 healthy subjects by quantifying positional and hardware variability. We also establish the existence of this variability in camera based solutions for self-monitoring of vitals in smart phones and thus prove that the use of camera based smart phone solutions is similar to the use of medical devices or wearables for self-monitoring in the wild.

在野外使用医疗设备或穿戴设备或基于摄像头的智能手机解决方案进行自我监测结果的可靠性,取决于位置和硬件差异等变量。在这项研究中,我们通过量化位置和硬件差异,证明了自我监测血压(BP)、血氧饱和度(SpO2)和心率(HR)的变量在203名健康人身上具有统计学显著性(p<0.05)。我们还建立了基于摄像头的智能手机自我监测结果的变量存在的证据,从而证明了使用基于摄像头的智能手机解决方案与在野外使用医疗设备或穿戴设备进行自我监测相似。
