Smart sensors could revolutionize dementia monitoring at home
NCT ID NCT07569367
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will test if wearable sensors can effectively monitor symptoms and daily function in people with frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Sixty adults with FTD will wear pendant and wrist sensors for two weeks at a time, every six months over two years. The goal is to develop digital tools that help doctors track the disease remotely, without relying solely on clinic visits.
