We performed a search to identify available wearable sensors systems that can collect patient health data and have data sharing capabilities. Findings available in “Wearable sensors with possibilities for data exchange: Analyzing status and needs of different actors in mobile health monitoring systems”. We performed an initial search of the Vandrico wearable database, and supplemented the resulting ...

<p><i>Background - </i>Introducing self-collected health data from patients with diabetes into consultation can be beneficial for both patients and clinicians. Such an initiative can allow patients to be more proactive in their disease management and clinicians to provide more tailored medical services. Optimally, electronic health record systems (EHRs) should be able to receive self-collected health ...

However, there are few solutions for sharing ...

Patients increasingly collect lifestyle and health-related data thanks to the explosion of sensors and healthcare applications. Multiple studies have shown that this data can be useful during consultations, resulting in more customised medical services. Moreover, this data permits clinicians to gain an overview of the patients’ conditions and enables patients to gain knowledge about the consequences ...
