Hot off the Press: INTERLIVE® Network Validation Protocol for Heart Rate

This is the second paper of the INTERLIVE® Network addressing the validation protocols for consumer wearable and smartphone devices. In this paper, the INTERLIVE® Network provides an expert statement on the best-practices for the validation of devices for measuring heart rate. These recommendations are designed for device manufacturers, scientific institutions, healthcare providers and members of the general public who are interested in the transparent and rigorous validation of these devices. Adherence to this validation standard will help ensure methodological and reporting consistency, facilitating comparisons between consumer devices and the amalgamation of standardised open datasets.
