Executive Summary

The emergence of mHealth technology has disrupted the healthcare industry in recent years, leading to increasing adoption and market growth. These devices have an impact far beyond typical consumer uses like fitness and activity tracking and have penetrated the area of medical applications such as diagnosis, monitoring and, to a certain extent, even the treatment of chronic diseases. The convergence of mHealth devices such as smartwatches and activity trackers with medical-grade products has facilitated the growth of smart technology in healthcare.

A wide range of mHealth devices and apps are being developed to address a broad range of ailments. Although these devices and apps are not yet a mainstay in the healthcare industry, many medical device manufacturers have started adding smart devices or connected device components to their product lines to address unmet needs within in-home healthcare and remote monitoring-two areas that are showing exponential growth.

Medical device companies, both industry giants and start-ups, are investing significantly in research and development (R&D) to develop innovative wearables that can manage a host of medical conditions, ranging from obesity and sleep apnea to diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma and cardiac diseases, and even disability rehabilitation and the monitoring of progressive nervous system disorders like Parkinson’s disease.

Heightened health and fitness consciousness among today’s generation of consumers and patients has led to an explosive growth in activity and fitness trackers, which is the segment that is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period. Due to advancements in sensor technology, nextgeneration medical wearables like mobile health (mHealth) integrated devices and smart textiles are soon expected to capture the healthcare market to a significant extent. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the development of these devices can potentially shift the healthcare and medical devices market in favor of wearable technology and, in the future, may even replace some traditional methods such as
fingerstick blood testing.

Fitness and activity trackers help to monitor health-related metrics, including heart rate, blood oxygen levels, walking or running progress, calorie consumption and sleep quality. Different types of fitness and activity trackers are available and are mostly in the form of wristbands, although they can also appear as clip-on devices, earbuds or clothing made of smart fabric. Besides being a stand-alone device, a fitness and activity tracker can also exist in the form of a fitness app and as software regularly installed on smartphones utilizing the device’s built-in components to keep track of certain activities.
