Draft WHO target product profile for wrist-worn wearable devices to measure physical activity and sedentary behaviour in national population health monitoring systems
WHO is seeking feedback on the draft target product profile (TPP) for wrist-worn wearable devices intended to measure physical activity and sedentary behaviour in national and subnational population health monitoring systems. The consultation seeks views on the rationale, intended use and scope; the proposed minimum and additional/enhanced device characteristics; whether the TPP meets the needs of intended users; and priorities for future WHO implementation and analytical support. Responses will inform revision of the draft TPP.
Please base your responses on the consultation draft. Where you recommend a change, please provide a brief rationale and, where possible, proposed alternative wording, a threshold, or supporting evidence. Certain questions are optional and you do not need to complete all sections.
This public consultation closes on 06 December 2026. WHO responses to this consultation will not be published. However, you can provide contact details if you would be happy to be contacted for further clarification of your responses.
