Wearable Devices and Artificial Intelligence to Enhance Perioperative Care in Total Knee Arthroplasty

Rapidly evolving wearable devices have the potential to transform health care delivery and enhance outcomes. Applications of wearable smart devices range from activity and motion tracking to real-time monitoring of vital signs and biochemical markers. Recent evidence provides support for the use of wearable devices in chronic disease management, rehabilitation, and perioperative care of patients with total knee arthroplasty. Data derived from these devices may enhance treatment personalization and early identification of complications. Challenges remain regarding accuracy, standardization, privacy, and patient adherence. Future advances must overcome these limitations.
