Wearable Cardioverter–Defibrillator-Measured Step Count for the Surveillance of Physical Fitness during Cardiac Rehabilitation

Wearable Cardioverter–Defibrillator-Measured Step Count for the Surveillance of Physical Fitness during Cardiac Rehabilitation

Background: The wearable cardioverter–defibrillator (WCD) has a built-in accelerometer, which allows tracking of patients’ physical activity by remote monitoring. It is unclear whether WCD-measured physical activity, step count, and heart rate correlate with established tools for the assessment of c...
