The Apple Watch is being used to predict pain levels of hospital patients with Sickle Cell disease who are experiencing a crisis.
As a chronic pain patient for 20 years, I know firsthand how hard it is to get doctors to understand how much pain you are in. Luckily , MRIs show the issues I have and I was able to find an outstanding and caring pain doctor. It would be easier if there were a tool to measure the amount of pain a person is in. While that is not possible, per, the Apple Watch is being used in a study that is being conducted to predict the pain levels of one of the most painful diseases, Sickle Cell disease .
The average study participant wore the Apple Watch for 2 hours and 17 minutes allowing the researchers to collect 15,683 data points. The report's conclusion states"The strong performance of the model in all metrics validates feasibility and the ability to use data collected from a noninvasive device, the Apple Watch, to predict the pain scores during VOCs.
