Wearable vital-sign monitoring
Medical-grade wearables that record vital signs continuously and send the readings to care teams in hospitals and at home.
A patient wears a small sensor or a wrist device that measures signs such as heart rate, breathing rate, temperature, and blood oxygen around the clock, and software shows the readings and trends to nurses and physicians. Hospitals use these devices on general wards, and care teams also use them to watch patients after discharge and in clinical research.
To compare them, check which vital signs each device measures and has cleared with regulators, how long it can be worn, how the data reaches the hospital's monitoring and EHR systems, and how devices are bought or leased.
