    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    A smartwatch algorithm, 2B-Healthy, successfully detected malaria infection up to six days before symptoms appeared in a controlled human infection study. This demonstrates the potential of wearable devices for early infection detection.

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Infectious Disease Research
    • Wearable Technology

    Background:

    • Controlled human infection studies offer rigorous evaluation of medical interventions.
    • Wearable devices can monitor physiological signals for health insights.
    • Early infection detection is crucial for timely treatment and public health.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the feasibility of using a commercial smartwatch for infection detection.
    • To develop and validate an algorithm for predicting infection using wearable data.
    • To evaluate the performance of the 2B-Healthy algorithm in a controlled human malaria infection (CHMI) model.

    Main Methods:

    • Ten subjects underwent CHMI, wearing a smartwatch to collect heart rate, skin temperature, and acceleration data.
    • A Bayesian-based algorithm, 2B-Healthy, was developed to estimate infection probability.
    • Eight control subjects provided data to determine the algorithm's false-positive rate.

    Main Results:

    • 2B-Healthy achieved 78% sensitivity in detecting malaria infection.
    • The algorithm identified infection an average of 6 days before parasitemia in six subjects.
    • A low false-positive rate of 6% per week was observed in control subjects.

    Conclusions:

    • The 2B-Healthy algorithm reliably detected infection prior to symptom onset using smartwatch data.
    • Wearable devices show feasibility as a screening tool for early infection warning.
    • Further research can establish 2B-Healthy as a basis for a wearable infection-detection platform.
