Abstract:
In recent years, the proliferation of wearable healthcare devices has marked a revolutionary shift in the personal health monitoring and management paradigm. These devices, ranging from fitness trackers to advanced biosensors, have not only made healthcare more accessible, but have also transformed the way individuals engage with their health data. By continuously monitoring health signs, from physical-based to biochemical-based such as heart rate and blood glucose levels, wearable technology offers insights into human health, enabling a proactive rather than a reactive approach to healthcare. This shift towards personalized health monitoring empowers individuals with the knowledge and tools to make informed decisions about their lifestyle and medical care, potentially leading to the earlier detection of health issues and more tailored treatment plans. This review presents the fabrication methods of flexible wearable healthcare devices and their applications in medical care. The potential challenges and future prospectives are also discussed.
摘要:
近年来,可穿戴医疗设备的普及标志着个人健康监测和管理范式的革命性转变。这些设备,从健身追踪器到先进的生物传感器,不仅使医疗保健更容易获得,但也改变了个人参与健康数据的方式。通过持续监测健康体征,从基于物理的到基于生化的,如心率和血糖水平,可穿戴技术提供了对人类健康的见解,实现对医疗保健的主动而不是被动的方法。这种向个性化健康监测的转变使个人拥有知识和工具,能够对他们的生活方式和医疗保健做出明智的决定。可能导致更早发现健康问题和更量身定制的治疗计划。本文综述了柔性可穿戴医疗设备的制造方法及其在医疗保健中的应用。还讨论了潜在的挑战和未来的前景。
