Data Validation

Data Validation

Method validation is a crucial process in analytical chemistry designed to confirm that a given method consistently produces reliable and high-quality results. This process is essential when a method is applied to different sample matrices or when procedural modifications are made, ensuring that the results meet acceptable standards across various applications.
Key parameters for method validation include:

Area of Science:

Biomedical research
Wearable technology
Data science

Background:

Growing use of person-generated wearable device data in research.
Concerns exist regarding data quality (e.g., missing, incorrect data).
Need to define data quality dimensions for wearable data.

Purpose of the Study:

Identify data quality dimensions for person-generated wearable device data.
Establish a framework for assessing wearable data quality in research.

Main Methods:

Three-phase study: literature review (PRISMA guideline), survey, and focus group discussions.
Literature review identified factors affecting data quality and challenges.
Survey and focus groups with domain experts refined and validated data quality dimensions.

Main Results:

Literature review revealed device, user, and governance factors impacting data quality.
Common data quality issues include incompleteness, incorrectness, and heterogeneity.
Survey and focus groups confirmed the applicability of existing EHR data quality dimensions and identified intrinsic (conformance, completeness, plausibility) and contextual (completeness, temporal granularity) dimensions.

Conclusions:

Intrinsic and contextual/fitness-for-use data quality dimensions for wearable data were identified.
Dimensions adapted from EHR data quality frameworks with modifications.
Further research is needed to develop assessment methods for these dimensions.
