GArmin CIRQA™ for blinded Protocols

Capture raw physiological data without changing participant behavior

Garmin CIRQA™ captures continuous physiological data without a screen to distract participants or bias your baseline. Lasting 10 days per charge, CIRQA™ adds temperature tracking in addition to heart rate, BBI, respiration, stress, actigraphy, sleep, and accelerometer data.

Drop CIRQA™  straight into your active Labfront setup on day one to collect high-resolution digital biomarkers.

Eliminate observer bias

Participants can't check sleep scores, step counts, or real-time alerts. Removing the display keeps your real-world baseline data clean.

Extend uninterrupted tracking

Fewer required charges means fewer data gaps. Maintain continuous data collection during long-term studies without relying on participants to manage high-maintenance devices.

Deploy instantly on Labfront

Connect CIRQA™ to your Labfront workspace immediately. Capture high-resolution digital biomarkers using your existing integration settings.

Protocol Advantage

Remove participant bias with screenless tracking

A screen invites interaction. Every glance at a wrist display gives participants immediate feedback, subtly altering the exact health behaviors you're trying to measure. CIRQA™ eliminates this feedback loop entirely.

For blinded and placebo-controlled protocols
Check Icon
Zero on-device feedback
Blind participants to their physiological metrics by default without the need for complex software workarounds.
Check Icon
Simplify IRB submissions
List a screenless device in your protocol to satisfy data-blinding requirements directly at the hardware layer.
For long-term field studies
Check Icon
Minimize data gaps
Extended battery performance means fewer charging interruptions, protecting your continuous longitudinal data.
Check Icon
Scale cohorts cost-effectively
Expand your sample size without paying recurring per-participant hardware subscription fees.
