Acceptability and Feasibility of Wearable Transdermal Alcohol Sensors: Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Transdermal alcohol sensors (TASs) have the potential to be used to monitor alcohol consumption objectively and continuously. These devices can provide real-time feedback to the user, researcher, or health professional and measure alcohol consumption and peaks of use, thereby addressing some of the limitations of the current methods, including breathalyzers and self-reports.

Objective

This systematic review aims to evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of the currently available TAS devices.

Methods

A systematic search was conducted in CINAHL, EMBASE, Google Scholar, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, PubMed, and Scopus bibliographic databases in February 2021. Two members of our study team independently screened studies for inclusion, extracted data, and assessed the
