What this Trial Is About
This is a prospective randomized open study, which aims to evaluate the benefit of a connected watch to help people aged 65 years and older to withdraw from BZD over a six-month period, compared with classical withdrawal (e.g without connected watch). The study will include 100 patients, 50 in the control group and 50 in the intervention group. Participants will be identified during a 12-month period through either external geriatric consultations or during a brief hospitalisation.
