Abstract: Objective: The American Heart Association's Life's Essential 8 (LE8) metric includes self-reported physical activity as one of the metrics for assessing cardiovascular health. Self-reported physical activity is prone to misclassification, whereas accelerometer measures are less biased. We examined associations of LE8 and incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) using self-reported and accelerometer-measured physical activity. Methods: ). Hazard ratios (HR) for physician-adjudicated CVD were estimated using Cox regression. Results: = 0.45 (0.35-0.57). Conclusions: The LE8-incident CVD association varies by physical activity measurement, however all methods showed reduced risk. Device-measures of physical activity may be more accurate in the LE8, but when impractical to implement, also support use of self-reported measures.
