Wearable fitness trackers: These devices, such as the Fitbit or Apple Watch, track a person’s steps, heart rate, sleep patterns, and other physical activity data.

Smart scales: These devices can measure weight, body composition, and other metrics.

Blood pressure monitors: These devices can measure blood pressure and provide data to healthcare providers or the users themselves.

Glucose monitors: These devices can track blood sugar levels in real time and alert users to any potential health issues.

Portable ECG monitors: These devices can track heart rate and rhythm, and can be useful in monitoring patients with heart conditions.

Smart inhalers: These devices can track usage of inhalers and provide data on inhaler use to patients and healthcare providers.

Smart pills: These devices can track medication adherence and provide data to healthcare providers.

These devices can provide valuable data to both the users and healthcare providers, and can help with disease management, treatment monitoring and personal health management. However, there are some concerns related to the data privacy, security, and the accuracy of the data collected by these devices. As well as the need for a proper medical interpretation of the data collected.
