Abstract
Abstract: With an increasing prevalence of sedentary lifestyles driving a prominent public health crisis, digital health tools such as wearable technologies are revolutionizing clinicians' ability to track physical activity and exercise. Despite their ubiquity in the consumer market, these technologies have not yet been fully incorporated into clinical practice. Though these tools promise efficacy and accessibility, a careful review of the current literature is important to understand the challenges and future promise of clinical implementation. Important considerations of implementation include health maintenance and disease prevention, ease of use by patients and providers, incorporation into the electronic health record, cost considerations, safety, privacy, and ethical considerations. This narrative review describes the recent literature on the implementation of wearable technologies in the prescription of physical activity and exercise. Application of these technologies is promising for this field's future.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
