Wearable technologies in biomedicine, healthcare and wellness are non-invasive and autonomous devices that capture, analyze, and aggregate physiological data to enhance individual health and well-being. These devices are used to self-monitor or self-assess, allowing individuals, patients and medical staff to better understand behaviour and body, and therefore health.
Wearable electronic technology & devices have been revolutionizing healthcare via monitoring health continuously outside of the healthcare environment. Previously, healthcare monitoring was specific to hospitals and involved time consuming and resource intensive clinical intervention. Wearable and mobile technology provides wireless medical monitoring, with bio-signals tracked by medical personnel. It's use has increased due to the rapidly aging global populations, need to lessen the burden on hospital and medical facilities, and increasing demand for in-home healthcare.
Wearable electronic devices facilitate the transmission of biomedical informatics and personal health recording, and offer ease of use while ensuring help, diagnosis, rehabilitation and therapy. Body worn sensors provide real-time, lower-cost, continuous measurement of physiological parameters noninvasively and comfortably for extended periods of time.
