Wearable photoplethysmography provides an opportunity for continuous cardiovascular monitoring and disease detection, though further research is needed to realize its full clinical potential.
Wearable photoplethysmography presents a promising tool for cardiovascular disease detection and monitoring in daily life.
Smart wearables provide an opportunity to monitor health in daily life and are emerging as potential tools for detecting cardiovascular disease (CVD). Wearables such as fitness bands and smartwatches routinely monitor the photoplethysmogram signal, an optical measure of the arterial pulse wave that is strongly influenced by the heart and blood vessels. In this survey, we summarize the fundamentals of wearable photoplethysmography and its analysis, identify its potential clinical applications, and outline pressing directions for future research in order to realize its full potential for tackling CVD.
Charlton et al. (Mon,) conducted a review in Cardiovascular disease. Wearable photoplethysmography was evaluated. Wearable photoplethysmography provides an opportunity for continuous cardiovascular monitoring and disease detection, though further research is needed to realize its full clinical potential.
