Introduction to the PRO-Diary System
1.1 An Overview of the PRO-Diary System
The PRO-Diary system consists of a wrist-worn electronic patient diary and
associated PC software which can record the user’s answers to questions during
daily living in a very flexible and easy to use way. The PRO-Diary incorporates a
tri-axial accelerometer to allow objective actigraphy data to be collected while the
device is worn. Actigraphy data may be saved and loaded into the
CamNtech
MotionWare Software
for off line analysis.
The device is intended to monitor
limb or body movements during daily living and sleep. The PRO-Diary can be
used to assess activity in any instance where quantifiable analysis of physical
motion is desired.
The PRO-Diary has a built-in score pad that allows the wearer to subjectively
assign and enter responses to pre-programmed questions. The score pad can be
used as a substitute or in addition to the traditional written patient diary in
conjunction with activity monitoring.
The PRO-Diary system comprises of:
One or more PRO-Diary devices
– to be worn or carried by the subject
PC software for designing questionnaires, setting-up, downloading,
viewing and exporting recorded answers
The PRO-Diary has a direct USB connection for setting up, downloading and
charging the battery. See
Section 3
for details of battery charging and expected
life.
The PRO-Diary has a clear, high contrast OLED display and the character size
may be changed during configuration. The front panel keys are touch sensitive
and require no force to operate. There are three main controls: the function key
which has multiple functions, the select key which is generally used to choose a
selection and slider control which allows precise item selection by means of left
or right swiping movements.
