Improving health care through smart watches


Smart watches don't just have to be for young people or technology experts. In fact, advances and advances in consumer and portable technology can have a positive impact on medical care and care for the elderly.

On the side of medical treatment, there are now portable devices that can help you track heartbeat and even blood pressure. Checking these parameters can be as easy as checking your wrist. Now, there are devices that can track your sleep patterns, how fast your heart beats, how far you have gone today, and this is just the tip of the iceberg.

In fact, there are even devices like Jawbone UP that collect data on your movements during the day, and as you sleep, analyze the data using a smart application running on your smartphone and present that data in an easy way to digest. This allows you to gain new knowledge about yourself and can even help you change your habits. After all, it's measured, it's done. Now you have the opportunity to measure all these parameters without much effort on your part.

At this time, however, these devices are mainly used by people who want to stay in shape or control their sleep cycle and are not used in conventional medicine to control patients. However, it is not an exaggeration to see that these devices are used by doctors and hospitals to track the patient's condition and disease outcomes. This will allow a physician to have more data to help diagnose, treat and adjust a patient's treatments, providing better results for the patient.

Imagine a world where your smartwatch or some kind of wearable technology silently controls various parameters of your health, knowing when you're not getting enough sleep, eating too much or too little, not exercising enough when your blood oxygenation levels are low decreased, blood pressure increased by more. All of this data could be analyzed and both you and your doctor could receive alerts if some predefined parameters are crossed. This allows you to seek medical attention before and get an illness before you can injure it.

Companies like AirStrip Technologies are in the lead with their healthcare applications, and their applications are already being implemented for patient monitoring and for electronic medical records. As wearable technologies become more common in the world of consumer electronics, they will also enter the medical world.
