The team led by RMIT University in Australia has made the wearable ECG device that could be used to prevent heart attacks for people with cardiovascular disease, including in remote health care and ambulatory care settings. While most wearable ECG monitors typically weigh a few hundred grams, the...

As wearable technologies are increasingly used to monitor patients' health and collect digital biomarkers forclinical researchand health care, this study highlights the need to better understand their accuracy and determine how measurement errors may affect research conclusions and inform medical decisions, ...
With accurate readings on body temperature and heart health, these devices could eventually replace everything from electrocardiograph (ECG) devices to defibrillators. Remote monitoring will give patients more control over their own lives and health. For people with chronic medical conditions, it ...
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is affecting about 1.2 million patients in Europe with a prevalence that is expected to have an exponential increment, in the next decades. This epidemiological evolution will be challenged by the low number of neurologists able to deliver expert care for PD. As PD ...
Health monitoring of infant patients in intensive care can be especially strenuous for both the patient and their caregiver, as testing setups involve a tangle of electrodes, probes, and catheters that keep the patient bedridden. This has typically invol
A review of electronic medical records show the Apple Watch detected heart rhythm abnormalities in children that led to a new arrhythmia diagnosis for some, and also recorded some arrhythmias that traditional ambulatory monitors did not. News
such as blood pressure monitors, are generally bulky, with only a single reading (Lee et al., 2018; Yuan et al., 2019). Wearable sensors that can detect biophysical signal (Zhou et al., 2021) such as heart rate (Zhao et al., 2022), body temperature, and stress (Meng et al., 202...
Accordingly, such a transponder may enable monitoring of patients 86 fitted with the patch 10 from one or more remote locations within, for example, a hospital or other healthcare facility. In addition, such a transponder may facilitate a wireless internet connection with one or more routers, ...
