Patient Wearables
"Patient Wearables" are devices worn on the body and used for medical applications, diagnosis and wellness monitoring. With the help of care teams, people can create custom health baselines for themselves and be alerted when deviations call for preventive measures or an acute intervention.
We are at the cusp of a revolution in patient wearables and other connected devices that monitor wellness by collecting longitudinal personal data.
Intel is at the forefront of this rapidly evolving segment, leading the way with innovative technology.
