AI-Powered Healthcare Wearables: The Next Generation of Remote Patient Monitoring

The landscape for wearable technology in healthcare has seen a significant shift in the past few years. Much of it stems from recent advances in artificial intelligence, especially the combination of AI and edge computing. “Historically, there was a lot of physiologic data that was never integrated into care,” says Arjun Mahajan, M.D. candidate at Harvard Medical School. “Now, AI can filter the noise, identify clinically meaningful patterns and trends, and create more discrete and actionable insights.” AI’s ability to analyze wearable data in real time brings innovation to remote patient…
