Abstract:
Background:Inactivity and overweight are major health concerns in children and adolescents with disabilities. Methods for the assessment of activity and energy expenditure may be affected negatively by the underlying disability, especially when motor function is impaired. The purpose of this study was to assess the validity of the SenseWear Armband in adolescents with cerebral palsy and hemiparesis.Methods:Ten volunteers (age: 13.4 ± 1.6 years) were equipped with SenseWear Armbands on the hemiparetic and nonhemiparetic side of the body. Energy expenditure was measured at rest and during treadmill exercise (speed range: 0.85 to 2.35 m/s). Indirect calorimetry served as independent reference method.Results:The mean error was between −0.6 and 0.8 kcal/min and there were no significant differences between SenseWear and indirect calorimetry at any speed. Differences between body sides in expenditure (mean: −0.2 to 0.0 kcal/min) and step count (mean: −3.4 to 9.7 steps/min) were not significant.Conclusions:The validity of the SenseWear Armband does not appear to be negatively affected by cerebral palsy during laboratory treadmill exercise. Future field studies are necessary to assess the validity and practicability of energy expenditure and physical activity assessment in children and adolescents with physical disabilities.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to test the validity of the SenseWear Pro Armband (SWA) for the measurement of energy expenditure (EE) and step count against a criterion in persons with stroke. Twelve participants with chronic stroke (mean age64.2±10.4years; mean gait speed0.67±0.25 m/sec) completed two trials of a six-minute walk test, while wearing a SenseWear Armband (SWA) on each arm and being continuously monitored using a portable metabolic cart. Agreement between estimates of energy expenditure from the SWA and the metabolic cart was fair for the armband on the hemiplegic arm (intraclass correlation cefficient(ICC)=0.586) and good for the armband on the unaffected arm (ICC=0.702). Agreement between the SWA estimate of step count, and step count as measured by the Step Activity Monitor was poor (ICC<0.352), with significant underestimation by the SWA. Our results show that, for these moderately impaired persons with stroke, the SWA should be used with caution for the measurement of energy expenditure and should not be used to measure step count.

Abstract:
Background:Accurate assessments of physical activity and energy expenditure (EE) are needed to advance research on positive and negative graded walking.Purpose:To evaluate the validity of 2 SenseWear Armband monitors (Pro3 and the recently released Mini) during graded walking.Methods:Twenty healthy adults wore both monitors during randomized walking activities on a motorized treadmill at 7 grades (0%, ±5%, ±15%, and ±25%). Estimates of total EE from the monitors were computed using different algorithms and compared with values derived from indirect calorimetry methodology using a 2-way mixed model ANOVA (Device × Condition), correlation analyses and Bland-Altman plots.Results:There was no significant difference in EE between the 2 armbands in any of the conditions examined. Significant main effects for device and condition, as well as a consistent bias, were observed during positive and negative graded walking with a greater over- and under-estimation at higher slope.Conclusions:Both the armbands produced similar EE values and seem to be not accurate in estimation of EE during activities involving uphill and downhill walking. Additional work is needed to understand factors contributing to this discrepancy and to improve the ability of these monitors to accurately measure EE during graded walking.

Abstract:
SenseWear Mini Armband, an accelerometer with multiple physiological sensors, could be a practical means to estimate energy expenditure (EE) of children and adolescents, but its validity reported for these age&nbsp;groups has not been consistent within the literature. EE of twenty-six healthy Chinese 12-year-old adolescents was measured simultaneously using both SenseWear Mini Armband (SWMA) and metabolic chamber (MC) during a 16-hour stay in a MC. SWMA systematically underestimated the adolescents’ EE during sedentary behaviors, resting metabolic rate (RMR), basal metabolic rate (BMR), and total EE, with the absolute error rate ranging from 14.85% to 28.65%. The SWMA significantly underestimated EE compared with MC in Chinese adolescents. However, the amount of error can be reduced by applying correction equation proposed in this study.

Abstract:
The current study aimed to show the validity of a portable motion sensor, the SenseWear Armband (SWA), for the estimation of energy expenditure during pole walking. Twenty healthy adults (mean ± SD: age 30.1 ± 7.2 year, body mass 66.1 ± 10.6 kg, height 172.4 ± 8.0 cm, BMI 22.1 ± 2.4 kg·m−2) wore the armband during randomized pole walking activities at a constant speed (1.25 m·s−1) and at seven grades (0%, ±5%, ±15% and ±25%). Estimates of total energy expenditure from the armband were compared with values derived from indirect calorimetry methodology (IC) using a 2–way mixed model ANOVA (Device × Slope), correlation analyses and Bland-Altman plots. Results revealed significant main effects for device, and slope (p < .025) as well as a significant interaction (p < .001). Significant differences between IC and SWA were observed for all conditions (p < .05). SWA generally underestimate the EE values during uphill PW by 0.04 kcal·kg−1·min−1 (p < .05). Whereas, a significant overestimation has been detected during flat and downhill PW by 0.01 and 0.03 kcal·kg−1·min−1 (p < .05), respectively. The Bland-Altman plots revealed bias of the armband compared with the indirect calorimetry at any condition examined. The present data suggest that the armband is not accurate to correctly detect and estimate the energy expenditure during pole walking activities. Therefore, the observed over- and under-estimations warrants more work to improve the ability of SWA to accurately measure EE for these activities.

Abstract:
This study examined the reliability and validity of the SenseWear Armband (SWA, BodyMedia, Inc.) during rest and exercise compared to indirect calorimetry (IC). Energy expenditure (EE) was assessed with SWA and IC in 13 males during two resting and one cycle ergometry (40 min at 60% VO2peak) sessions. In a second experiment, 20 adults walked on a treadmill for 30 min at 3 intensities while IC and SWA measured EE. At rest, no significant differences were found between EE measurements from the SWA (1.3 +/- 0.1 kcal/min) and IC (1.3 +/- 0.1 kcal/min), and the methods were significantly correlated (r = 0.76). The SWA EE estimation was reliable when comparing the two resting visits (r = 0.93). For the ergometer protocol, no significant differences were found between the SWA and IC measurements of EE early, mid, or late in exercise or for the total bout, although the measurements were not correlated (r = 0.03-0.12). The SWA EE estimate of walking increased with treadmill speed but not with inclination. The SWA significantly overestimated the EE of walking with no grade (27.4% for 3mph; 12.6% for 4mph) and significantly underestimated EE on the 5% grade (21.9%) (p<0.02). The SWA estimation of EE correlated with IC (r = 0.47-0.69). The SWA provided valid and reliable estimates of EE at rest. The SWA provided similar mean estimates of EE as IC on the ergometer, however the individual error was large. The SWA overestimated the EE of flat walking and underestimated inclined walking EE.

Abstract:
Purpose: To examine the validity of the SenseWear Pro3 armband in estimating energy expenditure during a wide range of field-based activities. Methods: 41 participants (mean age = 34.5 + 11.7 yrs.) performed one of two routines with 6 activities each, Routine 1 (Outdoor Aerobic Activities) or Routine 2 (Indoor Home-based Activities), while wearing the SenseWear Pro3 (SW) and the Cosmed K4b2 portable metabolic unit. Routine 1 (n=16) included road walking, track walking, walking with 6.8 kg (15 lb.) bag, singles tennis, track running, and road running. Routine 2 (n=25) included TV watching, reading, doing laundry, ironing, light cleaning, and aerobics. Each activity was done for approximately 10 min with a 3-5 min break between activities with resting measurements taken for all participants before routines. Results: The mean differences (Cosmed-SW) in average MET values for Routine 1 were: road walking (-1.0, p<0.001), track walking (-0.9, p<0.001), walking with bag (-0.7, p<0.01), tennis (1.7, p<0.001), track running (2.7, p<0.001), road running (2.7, p<0.001). For Routine 2, mean differences were: watching TV (-0.1, p>0.05), reading (-0.1, p>0.1), laundry (0.1, p>0.1), ironing (-1.3, p<0.001), light cleaning (-0.4, p<0.01), and aerobics (0.4, p>0.1). Discussion: Compared to indirect calorimetry, significant differences in average MET levels by the SW Pro3 armband were found for several activities with a trend for EE underestimation at higher intensities (r=0.72, p<0.01). The SW significantly overestimated MET levels of ironing, light cleaning, and all three walking variations, and it significantly underestimated tennis and both running bouts. Algorithms need to be refined for more accurate EE estimations at high intensities and in different field-based activities.

Abstract:
Purpose. To investigate the validity of the Sense Wear Pro Armband (SWA) to measure energy expenditure (EE) in healthy participants using wheelchair ergometry as an exercise modality. Method. Minute by minute EE was measured simultaneously using the SWA and indirect calorimetry(IC) during three different wheeling speeds including self-selected speed (0.81 m/s), moderate speed (1.11 m/s), and fast speed (1.73 m/s). Results. Twenty healthy volunteers (age = 34.0 (5.8) years)participated. The intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were 0.50 (p=0.010), 0.59 (p=0.003), and 0.68 (p=0.000) for the self-selected speed, moderate speed, and fast speed wheeling, respectively. The SWA overestimated EE 57.8%, 57.4 %, and 63.7% for self-selected speed, moderate speed, and fast speed, respectively. Conclusions. The SWA failed to provide an accurate estimate of EE as measured by indirect calorimetry for wheelchair ergometry exercise in healthy subjects. The SWA overestimated EE for all exercise intensities.

Abstract:
L’augmentation de la dépense énergétique (DE) par une augmentation de l'activité physique (AP) participe au maintien et à l’amélioration de la santé. La mesure à grande échelle de la DE totale (DET) en général et AP en particulier se heurte à des difficultés pratiques de recueil de données, de validité et aux coûts. Bien que dans la littérature de nombreux accéléromètres permettent d’estimer la DET, il y a encore des limites quant à la mesure de l’intensité de l’AP, élément qui influence l’état de la balance énergétique et le bénéfice pour la santé de l’AP. De plus, peu de comparaisons entre les différents accéléromètres sont disponibles. La présente étude avait pour but d’évaluer la capacité de deux accéléromètres (Actical et Sensewear Armband) pour estimer la DET en comparaison avec la technique de l’eau doublement marquée (EDM) ; d’évaluer la concordance entre les accéléromètres dans la mesure de la DE au repos (DER) en comparaison avec la technique de la calorimétrie indirecte (CI) et d’évaluer la DE liée à l’AP en comparaison avec la technique de la CI. Les résultats montrent qu’il y a une très bonne corrélation entre la CI et les accéléromètres dans la mesure de la DER(r > 0.80, p<0.001) et une bonne corrélation entre les accéléromètres et l’EDM dans la mesure de la DET(r>0.75, p<0.001). Pour la mesure de l’intensité de l’AP, l’ACT est plus précis (r=0.80, p<0.001)) que le SWA à la marche, le SWA est meilleur(r=0.80, p<0.001) au vélo. Cette étude permet d’affirmer que le SWA et l’ACT sont des alternatives valables pour mesurer la DE.
The increase in energy expenditure by the increase of physical activity contributes to maintaining and improving health. The large-scale measurement of total energy expenditure in general and physical activity in particular, is faced with difficulties of data collection, validity and cost. Although literature suggests that many accelerometers are used to estimate total energy expenditure, there are still limits as to the measurement of the intensity of physical activity, which is one of the factors that influences the energy balance and health benefits of physical activity. In addition, few comparisons between the different accelerometers are available. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of two accelerometers (Actical and SensWear Armband) to estimate total energy expenditure compared with the technique of doubly labelled water; to assess the correlation between the two accelerometers in the measurement of resting energy expenditure, compared with the technique of indirect calorimetry and finally to assess energy expenditure linked to physical (walking and cycling) at different intensities, in comparison with the indirect calorimetry technique. The results show a very good correlation between indirect calorimetry and the two accelerometers(r > 0.80, p<0.001) in the measurement of resting energy expenditure and a good correlation between accelerometers and the gold standard technique (doubly labeled water) in the measurement of total energy expenditure(r>0.75, p<0.001). To measure the intensity of physical activity, Actical is more accurate than SensWear Armband(r=0.80, p<0.001) at low intensity while the SensWear Armband is better at higher intensity (r=0.80, p<0.001). This study provides evidence that these two accelerometers are suitable alternatives for measuring energy expenditure.

"Can A Vegetarian Diet Affect Resting Metabolic Rate or Satiety: A Pilot Study Utilizing a Metabolic Cart and the SenseWear Armband." Master's thesis, 2012. http://hdl.handle.net/2286/R.I.15850.

Full text
Abstract:
abstract: Dietary protein is known to increase postprandial thermogenesis more so than carbohydrates or fats, probably related to the fact that amino acids have no immediate form of storage in the body and can become toxic if not readily incorporated into body tissues or excreted. It is also well documented that subjects report greater satiety on high- versus low-protein diets and that subject compliance tends to be greater on high-protein diets, thus contributing to their popularity. What is not as well known is how a high-protein diet affects resting metabolic rate over time, and what is even less well known is if resting metabolic rate changes significantly when a person consuming an omnivorous diet suddenly adopts a vegetarian one. This pilot study sought to determine whether subjects adopting a vegetarian diet would report decreased satiety or demonstrate a decreased metabolic rate due to a change in protein intake and possible increase in carbohydrates. Further, this study sought to validate a new device called the SenseWear Armband (SWA) to determine if it might be sensitive enough to detect subtle changes in metabolic rate related to diet. Subjects were tested twice on all variables, at baseline and post-test. Independent and related samples tests revealed no significant differences between or within groups for any variable at any time point in the study. The SWA had a strong positive correlation to the Oxycon Mobile metabolic cart but due to a lack of change in metabolic rate, its sensitivity was undetermined. These data do not support the theory that adopting a vegetarian diet results in a long-term change in metabolic rate.

Abstract:
É reconhecido o papel positivo do exercício físico na saúde e no bem-estar das populações. Também no tratamento de doenças crónicas a sua influência é determinante. Os seus benefícios em indivíduos com a Doença de Parkinson (DP), uma doença neurodegenerativa com incidência maior em idosos, são disso exemplo. Este relatório refere-se ao trabalho realizado no âmbito do Estágio, unidade curricular do Mestrado em Exercício e Saúde. O estágio decorreu na Associação Portuguesa de Doentes de Parkinson. A finalidade do trabalho consistiu em avaliar a importância e os benefícios que o exercício físico apresenta na reeducação de indivíduos com Doença de Parkinson. Neste contexto de formação prática, o estágio teve como objetivos a aquisição e o aperfeiçoamento de competências profissionais, em sincronia com avanços na competência pessoal, quer ao nível de capacidades como a aprendizagem, a adaptação e a flexibilidade, quer no desenvolvimento das relações interpessoais que o trabalho interdisciplinar sempre exige. Foram avaliados sinais da doença e monitorizada a sua progressão em 10 indivíduos com DP, através de questionários escritos, do uso da plataforma de pressões RsScan (equilíbrio) e do dispositivo SenseWear Armband (atividade física, dispêndio de energia, sono). Foram observados, analisados e descritos exercícios físicos realizados pelos utentes durante 24 sessões. O estágio acompanhou ainda a aplicação do programa Cogweb Move.It (atividades de dupla tarefa através dum conjunto de exercícios protocolados). Importantes diferenças foram observadas na evolução comportamental dos utentes avaliados. A reeducação pelo exercício físico deverá ter em conta a especificidade e o nível de adaptação de cada doente.
The positive role of physical exercise in the health and well-being of populations is recognized. Also in the treatment of chronic diseases, its influence is decisive. Its benefits in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD), a neurodegenerative disease with a higher incidence in the elderly, are no exception. This report refers to the work carried out within the scope of the Internship, the final curricular unit of the Master in Exercise and Health. The internship took place at the Portuguese Association of Parkinson's Disease Patients. The purpose of the work was to evaluate the importance and benefits that physical exercise has in the re-education of individuals with PD. In this context of practical training, the internship aimed to acquire and improve professional skills, in sync with advances in personal competence, both in terms of skills such as learning, adaptation and flexibility, and in the development of interpersonal relationships that interdisciplinary work always demands. Signs of the disease were evaluated and its progression was monitored in 10 individuals with PD, using written questionnaires, the RsScan pressure platform (balance) and a SenseWear Armband (physical activity, energy expenditure, sleep). Physical exercises to be performed by users in 24 sessions were observed, analysed and described. The internship also followed the application of the Cogweb Move.It program (dual-tasks activities through a set of protocol exercises). Relevant differences were observed in the behavioural evolution of the evaluated users. Re-education through physical exercise should take into account the specificity and level of adaptation of each patient.
