Wearables are playing a key role in the advancement of digital health.
This forum will look at current trends in wearable medical devices. The regulatory challenges and pathways to approval for these devices and combination products will be discussed. Strategies for product development and clinical validation will be reviewed. Business models to bring wearables to market will be presented, particularly for chronic conditions requiring continuous monitoring at home.
