WEARABLE ENCLOSURES FOR MONITORING, GEOLOCATION, ON CALL, EMERGENCIES

Medical and wellness applications have played an important role in driving demand for wearable electronics. Wearable enclosures such as BODY-CASE are used to house sensors that provide continuous monitoring of vital signs or health metrics. This can include monitors for heart rate/ECG, blood pressure, glucose  and temperature.

Wearable housings are also specified for:

  • fitness and wellness trackers – measuring steps, sleep patterns and overall health
  • drug-delivery systems – insulin pumps, pain management devices and portable infusion systems for chemotherapy and antibiotics
  • diagnostics – portable ultrasound devices and respiratory monitors
  • medical alert and emergency devices – fall detection, personal emergency response systems and seizure detection
  • geolocation/on call – for tracking the location of patients and staff and/or for alerting doctors, nurses and other clinicians.

Enclosure ergonomics are crucial because the device will be worn on the body – possibly in direct contact with the skin – for long periods. The user must not feel any discomfort or awkwardness whatsoever, especially if they are the patient.
