Accuracy of Wearable Transdermal Alcohol Sensors: Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

There are a range of wearable transdermal alcohol sensors that are available and are being developed. These devices have the potential to monitor alcohol consumption continuously over extended periods in an objective manner, overcoming some of the limitations of other alcohol measurement methods (blood, breath, and urine).

Objective

The objective of our systematic review was to assess wearable transdermal alcohol sensor accuracy.

Methods

A systematic search of the CINAHL, Embase, Google Scholar, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, PubMed, and Scopus bibliographic databases was conducted in February 2021. In total, 2 team members (EB and SH) independently screened studies for inclusion, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias. The methodological quality of each study w
