Predicting Panic Attacks with Garmin Data
Researchers at the National Taiwan University have published studies showing that physiological data from Garmin trackers can be used to predict panic attacks with 92% accuracy.
The studies utilized biometric insights from the Garmin Vivosport series to collect data on metrics like heart rate, sleep, and activity levels, combined with self-reported information on emotional state and environmental data from a mobile app.
- Collected 24/7 data on heart rate, sleep, and activity levels
- Combined with self-reported information on emotional state and environmental data
- Used machine learning model to predict likelihood of panic attack
The research went beyond just prediction, with a surprisingly high accuracy of 92% in predicting panic attacks.
Author's summary: Garmin trackers predict panic attacks with 92% accuracy.
