The global market for wearable medical devices is transforming how we prevent, diagnose, and treat illness. Marie Hattar at Keysight Technologies takes a closer look at the top three factors for designing wearable healthcare devices that users can depend on.
Top three factors for designing wearable healthcare devices.
Wearable medical devices rely on sensors, connectivity features, and advanced technologies to monitor health data and provide real-time updates for remote patient management.
These devices are being used for a range of medical and healthcare applications including vital sign monitoring, glucose monitoring, cardiac monitoring, sleep tracking, activity tracking, medication adherence, pain management, and more.
Wearable devices support patient self-care, but they are also becoming essential tools for healthcare professionals to perform health monitoring and early detection of medical conditions.
