Description

Ruijing Wang and co-authors mine wearable heart data from intensive care residents to see whether the heart betrays the stress the doctors report. Their 2024 study starts from the job's toll: ICU training is intense, and the strain can harm health and performance. A wrist device offers a passive window on that strain.

Fifty-seven residents wore a Fitbit for three weeks while filing daily stress reports. The team compared heart features, from medians to swings, against the self-reports and the day's named stressors. Correlations and mixed models were run side by side. The links that emerged were tangled rather than simple, which the authors take as a sign that stress leaves no single heart signature.
