At-Home Wearables

Objective measures of physical function, captured during daily life.

The PAMSys family helps clinical research teams measure physical activity, potential falls, gait, and upper-limb movement between study visits. Choose PAMSys, PAMSys Fall, PAMSys Gait, or PAMSys ULM, with recording schedules and data outputs configured for your protocol.

Everyday movement, measured for your study

Characterize daily activity, walking patterns, upper-limb use, and potential falls with the PAMSys family. Tailor sensor selection, recording schedules, and analysis outputs to your study population and protocol.

A fuller view of function between study visits

Clinic assessments provide a structured view of participant performance. PAMSys recordings add information about movement and function during everyday routines. BioSensics helps sponsors select complementary measures and monitoring schedules for the population and research question.

The PAMSys family of wearable sensors

Four dedicated sensors for measuring different aspects of physical function during daily life. Select the PAMSys product that fits your study’s measurement needs.

  • Physical activity and posture

    PAMSys™

    A pendant-worn sensor for monitoring walking, body posture, and postural transitions during daily life. FDA has accepted PAMSys into the FDA ISTAND program as a drug development tool for measuring ambulation in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) clinical trials.

  • Falls and movement context

    PAMSys Fall™

    Identifies potential falls and records surrounding movement data for review alongside participant or caregiver reports.

  • Everyday gait

    PAMSys Gait™

    An ankle-worn sensor that measures stride duration, estimated stride length, and walking speed during everyday walking.

  • Upper-limb movement

    PAMSys ULM™

    A wrist-worn sensor that uses deep-learning analysis to characterize movement patterns associated with goal-directed upper-limb activity.

    Study activity, gait, upper-limb movement, and potential falls alongside clinical assessments and participant reports.

  • Options for remote studies

    Choose PAMSys sensors and data-transfer workflows that fit at-home, decentralized, and multisite study designs.

  • Workflows that fit participants

    Select wear locations, charging routines, and instructions suited to the study population and monitoring period.

  • Evidence matched to intended use

    Evaluate candidate measures in the relevant population and context, drawing on indication-specific research and endpoint development expertise.

  • Coordinated study support

    Coordinate device preparation, data collection, and analysis with BioSensics throughout your study.

Support for your PAMSys study

Plan device deployment, measurement selection, and analysis with support tailored to your research program.

  • Study setup and deployment

    Plan PAMSys device preparation, deployment, participant and site training, and technical support around your protocol.

  • Endpoint development

    Evaluate candidate PAMSys measures for your study population and intended use through natural history studies and focused analyses.

  • Data analysis and reporting

    Define analysis outputs and interpret PAMSys recordings in the context of your research objectives, clinical assessments, and participant reports.

Planning your PAMSys study

Choose sensors and data-collection workflows around your study population and protocol.

How do we choose the right PAMSys sensor?

Start with the function you want to measure, the intended study population, and the length of the monitoring period. BioSensics can help you evaluate sensor placement, available measures, charging needs, and data outputs against your protocol. The comparison table and individual product pages provide a starting point.

Can PAMSys recordings be combined with other assessments?

Yes. Depending on the study setup, PAMSys data can complement clinical assessments, participant reports, and other digital assessments. BioSensics works with the study team to define the collection schedule and analysis outputs.
