By Pooja Toshniwal PahariaNov 2 2022Reviewed by Danielle Ellis, B.Sc. In a recent study soon to be presented at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions 2022*, researchers evaluated the usage of WHDs by cardiovascular disorder patients and those at an increased risk of CVS disorders in the United States .
About the study In the present national-level survey-based study, researchers investigated WHD usage by CVS patients and high-risk individuals in the US. They also investigated whether WHD usage was equivalent among demographically diverse indiviudals with differences in terms of sex, age, education, ethnicity and income and whether the study participants were willing to share their health data with healthcare professionals .

The analysis predicted that 34 million high-risk individuals and four million CVS patients in the US used WHDs, translating to 26% and 18% of high-risk individuals and CVS patients, respectively, whereas 29% of all US residents above 18 years of age used WHDs.
