Sumario:Wearable activity trackers are playing an increasingly important role in healthcare. In the field of rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs), various applications are currently possible. This review will present the use of activity trackers to promote physical activity levels in rheumatology, as well as the use of trackers to measure health parameters and detect flares using artificial intelligence. Challenges and limitations of the use of artificial intelligence will be discussed, as well as technical issues when using activity trackers in clinical practice.
