Question 1

A digital health research institute issues its clinical trial coordinators with advanced wearable biometric bands. These bands continuously monitor heart rate, stress levels, sleep patterns, and GPS location to study the relationship between coordinator fatigue and clinical trial accuracy. The coordinators are permitted and encouraged to keep wearing the bands during their personal time, including weekends and annual leave, to maintain a continuous data stream.

Explain two reasons why the clinical trial coordinators may raise ethical or legal concerns about the continuous tracking and data collection from these biometric bands.
