Health monitoring devices

Health monitoring devices, which are devices that help a person monitor his body, whether a person has health problems, in order to better understand their bodies or for improvement, or sometimes out of curiosity only, but first let us put a definition of health monitoring devices.

Definition of health monitoring devices

Health monitoring devices are an emerging technology that enables continuous ambulatory monitoring of human vital signs during daily life (during work, at home, during sport activities, etc.) or in a clinical environment, with the advantage of minimizing discomfort and interference with normal human activities,  devices that use ultrasound, ray X , and others collect information coming from the body, such as a sensor device that uses an electrode that translates the waves ؤomes from the heart into an electrical current in order to monitor the heartbeat, Nowadays we are noticing the spread of some of these devices in a small size and with the same efficiency, for a multiple domain such as sport personal home … 

So let's talk about this devices.

 

Personal health monitoring devices

It can be summarized as devices that were invented to organize the healthy life of the patient and monitor him continuously, for example devices that inject medicine directly into the patient’s body at specific times and at a specific scale with recording the body’s response to a medicine to study what the drug’s efficacy is, and also to intervene as soon as possible in the event of any health problem. 

Another example  Portable Gluten Tester uses a test capsules and a proprietary app that allows you to track and share data with other users, the pocket-sized sensor could be a lifesaver for people with gluten allergies or celiac disease.

 

 

Home health monitoring devices

 Home health monitoring devices, which are devices that monitor the health of an individual inside his home, and there are many examples, we mention some of them. 

Some people are allergic to humidity and that causes them to have respiratory problems, runny nose, sinusitis, in addition to many other problems .

Health monitoring devices for athletes

 health monitoring devices have enabled athletes, coaches, and physicians to track functional movements, workload, biomechanical and bio-vital markers utilizing wearable sensors to maximize performance and minimize the potential for injury. Wearable monitoring systems can provide continuous physiological data thus permitting the development of accurate treatment plans and player-specific training programs to potentially mitigate and alleviate injuries.

For example Wearable devices for football player.
