Wearable Healthcare Tech

in health •  7 years ago 

Finding the right healthcare wearable is a struggle. Sometimes technology in itself does not provide much help. For example, the Amazon Wearable marketplace has so many devices, it makes even harder to choose. Also, there are many problems you might encounter. A bunch of technological problems might arise: the device requires constant attention, needs to be charged constantly, Bluetooth connections unpair randomly and synchronization might be a nightmare. And when you finally “master” technology, it takes the skills of an IT guru combined with that of a trained physician to interpret the data. Some makers of healthcare wearables are better than others at providing insight into how to live better instead of dumping meaningless data in the users’ lap.

The healthcare wearable industry is more than just fitness trackers and heart-rate monitors, and technology devices are being used to transform both patient and self-care, in hospitals and at home. From virtual reality to robotic artery de-cloggers, futuristic healthcare devices have the potential to improve the lives of patients in the not-too-distant future

Wearable health tech certainly gives the clinician great data on how a patient is doing in the long term and not just when they’re in the clinic for a checkup.
