A Wearable System For Respiratory And Pace Monitoring In Running Activities: A Feasibility Study |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Wearable devices are extensively used for monitoring physiological parameters both in clinical settings and in sports science. Among others, respiratory rate is mostly neglected but is a valid index to assess athletes' performance.The purpose of this work was to test a wearable device composed of two elastic bands embedding conductive textiles during a running session of approximately 9.5 km. The test has been carried out by a young healthy volunteer who worn two bands on the rib cage (one on the upper thorax and one on the umbilicus). The frequency-domain analysis allowed estimating both respiratory parameters (i.e., the average respiratory rate, f(R)) and running related parameters (i.e., estimated running distance and average running pace).The wearable system was able to perform a good estimation of both respiratory and gait parameters allowing a better understanding of the relationship between the fatigue and the respiratory activity, enabling a more accurate running performance evaluation. |
