Calibration and Cross-Validation of Accelerometer Cut-Points to Classify Sedentary Time and Physical Activity from Hip and Non-Dominant and Dominant Wrists in Older Adults

Migueles, 2021

Description

Cut-points for Euclidean norm minus one (ENMO) per 5-sec for monitors worn at the hip and each wrist developed and cross-validated in older adults (≥70 years of age). Across wear locations, sensitivity and specificity were 61-80% and 64-83%.

Development/Validation

Sample: 59 (29 males) older adults, ≥70 years of age

Setting: Laboratory

Activities: Activities of daily living, overground and treadmill walking, stationary

Criterion: Cosmed K4b2 or K5 (VO₂)

Accelerometer(s): ActiGraph GT3X+ on right hip, each wrist

Validation approach: Independent sample cross-validation (n=19)

Phase Designation

(What's this?)

This model is in Phase 1 and 4.

Instructions

ENMO per 5-sec is calculated as square root of the sum of the squared acceleration in each axis, minus one, with negative values rounded up to zero. Below are the developed cut-points. You can also use the R package GGIR to calculate ENMO and apply these cut-points.
