    Wearables have become an essential commodity to help detect vital parameters and help individuals self-monitor themselves during these unprecedented pandemic times, especially in such distressing times and with little faith in the healthcare system. It has become critical for a person to prioritize his or her wellbeing.

    FREMONT, CA: The conventional healthcare model has been focused on disease management. A woman with an illness sees a doctor when the disease's stress causes pain or interferes with her everyday life. As the sole decision-maker, the doctor depends on insufficient evidence for diagnosis: mostly one-time clinical readings of standard physiological parameters such as heart rate, temperature, and blood pressure, as well as apparent signs and subjective memory of the patient

    A partial case history omitted details about the patient's environment and lifestyle, and a lack of respect for an individual's genomics lead the doctor to speculate on a treatment. There is very little to no follow-up after the patient is sent home with treatment or instructions for counseling or lifestyle changes. The doctor has no idea whether the patient has taken her medication on a daily basis as prescribed or whether she has stopped taking it due to side effects or negligence.

    Consumers are gradually losing confidence in the healthcare system, which they perceive to be expensive, ineffective, and inconvenient, and are instead turning to non-traditional approaches to health such as lifestyle changes, nutrition, diet, mindfulness, and alternative medicines.

    Furthermore, with the onset of the COVID pandemic a year ago, our habits have changed drastically. Most are confined to their houses, which has had a major effect on our immunity. The lockdown caused changes in our sleep patterns, dietary habits, and physical activity, all of which are important components of people's immune system.

    Wearables have become an essential commodity to help detect vital parameters and help individuals self-monitor themselves during these unprecedented pandemic times, especially in such distressing times and with little faith in the healthcare system. It has become critical for a person to prioritize his or her wellbeing. COVID and other chronic illnesses are one of the most significant problems confronting healthcare systems around the world. Wearable systems may be used to treat patients and diseases. Smart technology-enabled healthcare organizations are moving ahead in bringing digital healthcare to the forefront in order to assist individuals in taking care of their well-being.
