Leveraging Real-World Data: Insights into Depression from Surveys and Wearables, Upcoming Webinar Hosted by Xtalks and Evidation

In this free webinar, discover how real-world data can revolutionize our understanding of depression and drive more patient-centered research and care. Attendees will learn how longitudinal collection of active and passive real-world data from 54,000+ individuals with depression helps paint a more comprehensive picture of the day-to-day experiences and challenges of living with this mental health condition. The featured speaker will look at depression-related patterns and trends by combining patient-reported experiences with objective metrics like activity, sleep and heart rate from wearables, as well as share insights about depression and its management, including how to shape treatment priorities, enhance clinical trial design, and inform personalized care strategies.

TORONTO, Oct. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- To better address the impact of depression on the well-being and quality of life, treatment approaches and clinical trials can benefit from information about the everyday experiences and challenges of individuals with depression. Equally important is understanding how these experiences change over time and with treatment. Gaining these insights relies on longitudinal data collected from a large, representative, real-world population, which can be difficult to achieve in clinical trial and care settings.

A continuous, direct connection to an online community of engaged individuals willing to respond to surveys and connect their devices and apps, such as Apple Watches and Fitbits, presents opportunities to capture data longitudinally. These novel, layered datasets help accurately and comprehensively describe the real-world experiences with depression.

Using this approach, Evidation collected survey data from over 54,000 individuals and sleep and activity data from more than 35,000 individuals who had a wearable device connected in the past 90 days. Join Christian Cerrada, Lead Health Behavior Scientist at Evidation, to learn how this rich dataset can help you:

•     Better understand the day-to-day experiences and challenges of living with depression
•     Uncover depression-related patterns and trends by combining patient-reported experiences with objective metrics like activity, sleep and heart rate from wearables
•     Segment study populations by characteristics such as treatment non-compliance, treatment switchers and treatment resistance
•     Create a more complete view of depression and its management, offering new opportunities to shape treatment priorities, enhance clinical trial design and inform personalized care strategies

The live webinar will take place on Friday, November 8, 2024, at 3pm EST (12pm PST). For more information, or to register for this event, visit Leveraging Real-World Data: Insights into Depression from Surveys and Wearables.
