Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Fortis will distribute the wearable device Watch called ( Empatica E4 ) provided by TCS to consenting volunteers. The volunteer will wear the watch continously for 2 weeks , wherein the following metadata will be recorded. Heart rate, Spo2, Body temperature, height, weight, Blood pressure( recorded manually ), will be recorded against the USER ID provided to TCS.   Data to be analysed at Baseline, at 2 weeks, at 4 weeks and at 6 weeks  
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Can be used extensively as a wearable device ,for healthcare workers in Covid exposed settings and also persons in Quarentine , ...who can be detected or diagnosed early for treatment if Metadata / algorithm suggests, that the person has been exposed to the Covid-19 virus.  Baseline, at 2 weeks, at 4 weeks and at 6 weeks

Brief Summary   This observational study  called, Continous Wearable device based Monitoring  of healthcare professionals supporting Covid -19 patients  for early screening of Covid -19 related symptoms.   This study is a prototype to test and predict with the Metadata  collected by a wearable device ( Empatica E 4 )  by consenting doctors and nurses, who are directly  involved in the treatment of covid 19 patients  in ICU or Wards.
The study is basically to detect early warning for these healthcare workers , by means of information collected by the watches . The watches will record  continously the PPG ( photoplythsmography ), GSR, Skin temperature, Heart rate, Respiratory rate and Accelerometer data. 
As we know the Covid -19 patients are Happily Hypoxic with saturations ranging from 85% to  95% in room air, but still are asymptomatic. The idea is to capture the various parameter   ( Meta data )and the   Spo2  of our healthcare workers  every 24 hours ( by downloading from the watch all data ), and analyzing  in a software to look at the trend to see for  temperature raise ,heart rate raise or Spo2 drop , in these individuals who are in Covid ward or ICU , looking after the patients,.
By looking at the Metadata , we are looking at fore  Warning the doctors or nurses, regarding their deteriorating health ,while serving in these Covid wards . These people can be now  be further evaluated , with a high suspicion to the viral disease and quarentined  thereafter. 
These wearable devices can also be used on people ,who are on home or Institutuional Quarentine for 14 or more days.
The study will be conducted in over 30 individuals , over a period of 1 month , in one hospital, which is treating Covid patients .
The Ethics approval has been obtained from Fortis hospital, kolkata vide  reg no,. ECR/240/INST/WB/2013/RR-19 DATED   19TH MAY 2020
