TI  - Evaluation of Reliability of MYZONE MZ-3 Heart Rate Monitor: A Study for the 
      Future of Telephysiotherapy for Preoperative Prehabilitation in Cancer Patients.

AB  - BACKGROUND: There are a number of commercially available heart rate (HR) monitors 
      on the market. The reliability of these monitors has had varying results. To the 
      best of our knowledge, there are no telemonitoring services utilizing these 
      devices for perioperative prehabilitation services for patients undergoing major 
      surgery. The goal of this study is to pilot the MYZONE((R)) MZ-3 HR monitor to 
      assess its level of reliability to provide a feasible telephysiotherapy 
      prehabilitation service through prescription-based exercise programs to patients 
      presenting for major cancer surgery within our leading oncological health 
      service. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Paired HR data from each participant were 
      captured and analyzed using a Bland-Altman plot. RESULTS: Seven healthy 
      participants were included in the study with a total number of paired HR data 
      points of 1,928. The bias (mean difference) between electrocardiogram and the 
      MYZONE MZ-3 was 0.4 beats per minute (bpm) with an adjusted 95% limits of 
      agreement of -4.5 to 5.3 bpm. CONCLUSION: The commercially available MYZONE MZ-3 
      HR monitor is a reliable tool for delivering telephysiotherapy to patients 
      undergoing major cancer surgery. Further studies are needed to validate its use 
      in this setting.
