Methods for Predicting Asthma Exacerbations using Personal Sensor Monitoring Systems
Abstract
Background/Aim: The Pediatric Research using Integrated Sensor Monitoring Systems (PRISMS) program was launched by the US National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering to develop wearable, sensor-based, integrated health monitoring systems for measuring environmental (e.g., personal air pollution exposure), physiological, and behavioral factors in epidemiological studies of pediatric asthma. Continuous, real-time sensor data pose unique opportunities and challenges compared to typical environmental epidemiology data from cohort or panel studies. To extract meaningful information from heterogeneous sensors, a data integration framework and new statistical approaches that apply over large historical and streaming data are required. While many scientific questions are of interest, a common goal is to identify important triggers of asthma exacerbations. The aim of our study is to develop …
