1Department of Biomedical Engineering, Karunya Institute of Technology and Sciences, Coimbatore, India.
Aim:
Smart wearable devices for continuous monitoring of health conditions have bbecome very important in the healthcare sector to acquire and assess the different physiological parameters. This paper reviews the nature of physiological signals, desired vital parameters, role of smart wearable devices, choices of wearable devices and design considerations for wearable devices for early detection of health conditions.
Subject And Methods:
This article provides designers with information to identify and develop smart wearable devices based on the data extracted from a literature survey on previously published research articles in the field of wearable devices for monitoring vital parameters.
Results:
The key information available in this article indicates that quality signal acquisition, processing and longtime monitoring of vital parameters requires smart wearable devices. The development of smart wearable devices with the listed design criteria supports the developer to design a low power wearable device for continuous monitoring of patient health conditions.
Conclusion:
The wide range of information gathered from the review indicates that there is a huge demand for smart wearable devices for monitoring health conditions at home. It further supports tracking heath status in the long term via monitoring the vital parameters with the support of wireless communication principles.

01:30Equipments Used To Measure Blood Pressure
This invasive approach involves cannulating a peripheral artery. During each cardiac contraction, pressure generates mechanical motion within the catheter, transmitted through rigid, fluid-filled tubing to a transducer. This transducer converts mechanical motion into electrical signals displayed as waveforms on a monitor. An automatic flushing system prevents blood backflow. Due to the potential risk of unexpected arterial blood loss, this method is primarily used in intensive...
