Introduction
AI-powered wearables are revolutionizing health care, particularly in cardiac health. These devices continuously monitor heart function, enabling early detection of abnormalities and personalized care. Digital medicine’s integration with AI promises to significantly improve patient outcomes. While AI wearables offer vast potential, challenges persist, including concerns about data accuracy, privacy, and regulatory approval, as well as the need for clear ethical guidelines.
Opportunities of AI-powered wearables
AI wearables provide numerous opportunities for improving cardiac care. One major benefit is early detection of heart abnormalities, such as arrhythmias, which often go unnoticed until severe events occur. By using AI algorithms to analyze real-time data, wearables can identify issues like atrial fibrillation (AFib) early, preventing life-threatening complications.
Additionally, AI wearables enable personalized...
