Abstract

The article discusses wearable sensor technology for the remote monitoring of the health of a patient by doctors and caregivers through a patch worn on the body. The Proteus Ingestion Event Marker (IEM) from Proteus Digital Health can be integrated into tablets to help in the tracking of when medication is taken. Sensors worn on the upper arm from Body Media help people track what they eat, as well as their physical-activity and sleep levels to determine how it affects their weight and health.
