Table 4.
Risk-of-bias assessments for individual studies investigating effectiveness according to standardized criteria for randomized studies using the Cochrane Risk-of-Bias Tool 2.0. Bias is assessed as low, high, or unsure (when sufficient information is not available to allow assessment).
| Risk of bias domain | Study (Scheffer et al [27]) |
| Random sequence generation | Low |
| Allocation concealment | Low |
| Blinding of participants or personnel | High |
| Blinding of outcome assessment | Unsure |
| Incomplete outcome data | High |
| Selective reporting | Low |
| Other bias | Unsure |
| Comments | High dropout, especially in the intervention group where the provided foremost reason was that the participants found the alarm too big and heavy |
