Project
PACES
The Paediatric Actigraphic Clinical Evaluation (PACES) project is exploring how wearable devices could be used to evaluate interventions for children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). HHCD has pioneered a child-friendly wearable device and app, jointly designed by clinicians, researchers, designers, engineers, families and children with ADHD. This device tracks activity levels, which helps understand how medication affects ADHD symptoms, and thus improving treatment for ADHD.
