2. ABSTRACT
The market for healthcare wearables is very much in its infancy, though there is a considerable amount of
activity across the healthcare value chain. Wearables are being seen as an extension of the digital
transformation of healthcare, helping pharmaceutical companies to expand clinical trials, enabling insurance
companies to engage with customers by incentivizing healthier living, helping healthcare providers to improve
the delivery of healthcare, and empowering patients by providing them access to their own health data.
Healthcare wearables are part of the ongoing evolution of wearables, as they move from being fitness and
wellness devices to being able to directly impact medical conditions, improve diagnosis and care, and
ultimately save lives. Chronic medical conditions like cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes are the
primary targets for many of the emerging healthcare wearable companies, as they impact a large percentage of
the population. Eldercare, whether in a healthcare facility or as part of remote monitoring in the home, is
another key focus for healthcare wearables, providing real-time continuous feeds of vital signs, as well as alerts
in case of any anomalies. However, the market does face challenges related to the accuracy of sensors and
consumers’ level of confidence in wearables, optimization of design and user experience, the need for user
education about the capabilities of healthcare wearables, and the challenges that smaller healthcare wearable
companies face in obtaining regulatory and insurance approvals.
