Introduction
Wearable medical devices are “connected” devices, with features such as wireless data transmission, real-time feedback, alerting mechanism, and more. Data generated by wearable devices, enabled with analytics, is used by consumers for better health management, and by healthcare providers for better care that minimizes in-person consultation costs. Miniaturization of sensor technology and the development of wireless communication and computation technology have enabled the shift of clinical monitoring beyond hospitals to homes or outdoors. Wearable medical devices are also helpful to pharmaceutical companies for conducting efficient clinical trials to gather data remotely, and for insurers to provide outcome-based reimbursement.
