The role of sensor data for the prediction of cardiovascular disease

Abstract:

The early identification of individuals at high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the cornerstone of effective primary prevention. Current risk stratification tools, such as QRISK3, rely heavily on non-modifiable factors and have limited predictive accuracy. This thesis explores the use of digital sensors to objectively measure physiological and lifestyle risk factors not captured by traditional methods to improve the prediction of incident CVD. In this thesis, I assess the added value ...
