The world of digital health is transforming the global healthcare landscape. Mobile networks are the enabler of digital health while wearable technology is growing rapidly and is expected to be the next big wave in healthcare similar to that created by the smartphone revolution.
The increasing adoption of wearable technology in healthcare application is accelerated with the increasing demand for real time data for assisted living and home care patients. Keeping the patients out of hospital means saving on resources: doctors and hospitals bed can be devoted to truly sick patients; better experiences for patients and care givers who can still live at their own familiar setting that may accelerate the recovery; as well as benefiting the country and health care system as a whole.
Concurrently with costs on the rise, the shift of healthcare now is on preventing diseases before they arise. Wearable sensors are expected to create a major impact in fitness and clinical diagnostics.
According to IHS, wearable technology and remote patient monitoring show bright outlook whereby telehealth services are currently forecast to serve 5 million patients worldwide and consumer medical devices are forecast to exceed OEM sales of $10 billion through 2017. In a new assessment of the mobile healthcare market, ABI Research finds home monitoring devices which primarily target the growing elderly care market, is also expected to witness strong growth over the next five years with overall device revenue growing at CAGR exceeding 39%. McKinsey estimates that the cost of chronic disease treatment could be reduced by 10-20% through the use of mobile sensors, an economic impact of up to $2 trillion per year by 2025.
