Consumer demand for wearable devices is surging, with the global smart wearables market size anticipated to reach around USD 431.74 billion by 2034, expanding at a CAGR of 19.59% from 2024 to 2034. Users are increasingly prioritising features that provide meaningful health insights - especially heart health, the world's leading cause of death. At the same time, medical professionals are relying more on technology to manage growing healthcare demands. With this in mind, it was a pleasure for our CTO, Adrian Condon, to sit down with Wearable Technologies AG to discuss how our FDA-cleared ECG software, HeartKey®, is bringing medical-grade technology to body-worn devices - from smartwatches to rings and more. 📽️ Check out the full video here: https://lnkd.in/dBjF5Xky

With the Digital Health Summit at #CES2025 fast approaching, we’re keeping a close eye on some key trends shaping the wearable devices market: 💡 Wearable Tech Levels Up: Devices like the Oura Ring are advancing beyond fitness tracking into tools for disease monitoring and early detection. These innovations are bridging the gap between consumer and clinical outcomes, transforming chronic condition management - from wrist to fingertip. 🩺 Personalized Health Takes Center Stage: AI and data integration are unlocking tailored health solutions. Wearables powered by HeartKey® ECG technology are driving a shift to preventive care, reducing healthcare costs while improving outcomes for users and providers alike. 📈 Growth in Connected Health: Consumer demand for smarter, more intuitive devices continues to rise. The Consumer Technology Association predicts a +10% increase in connected health device shipments and a +17% surge in health service spending. Devices blending clinical-grade accuracy with everyday usability are leading the charge. 🌟 Spotlight on Women’s Health: Wearables are stepping up to address unmet needs in cardiovascular, fertility, and maternal care. Innovations in postpartum care, newborn health, and cardiac monitoring are paving the way for more equitable healthcare solutions. 🌐 Preventive Health Drives Engagement: Wearable ECG devices are a game-changer in remote cardiac care. According to our recent research (https://lnkd.in/exAx-dCT), 95% of consumers using wearables are willing to share health data with medical professionals. From smartwatches to patches, these devices promote proactive care, early detection of cardiovascular risks, and healthier lifestyle choices, reshaping the consumer health experience. Attending CES?

⌚️ Wearables integrations are no longer optional - they are mandatory. If you are a fitness or wellness entrepreneur, leader or business, not having a wearable strategy is nearing negligence.  I realize that it can sound controversial but hear me out. As healthcare is forced to move to a more decentralized infrastructure, home care and remote monitoring are on the rise.  Wearable devices are closing the gap to being medical grade.  Many devices, including the Apple Watch, can already perform a ECG.  Other devices, such as the recently launched Happy Health Ring, has created a medical grade ring for the consumer.  According to Happy Ring, the ring modality is nearly 100% more accurate in collecting health data compared to a watch. Consumer use of wearables is on the rise. From B-Secur’s recently launched heart health study: ➡️ 69% of consumers who own a wearable wear it daily. ➡️ 83% use a wearable for fitness activity tracking. ➡️ 75% use a wearable for health tracking activities like heart health, sleep monitoring and blood pressure. ➡️ 95% of consumers who use a wearable would share their information ➡️ 61% of consumers who own a wearable are confident in the accuracy of diagnoses or treatments on the heart health data from that device. 🌡️ Wearables are now tracking symptoms. This week ŌURA released its Symptom Radar which looks for changes in the ring data that could indicate that something is straining your body.  I have been using Symptom Radar since its beta release earlier this year and it has detected sickness twice before I was able to feel it.  As a result, I was able to take measures sooner - thus reducing my time in sickness. 📈 FDA Approvals are on the Rise More and more devices are again FDA for various use cases which is providing further validation for consumers.  According to a study conducted by another ring manufacturer, Movano Health - 65% of women indicate that FDA approval of wellness metrics is high priority. 👩⚕️ Wearables are playing an integral role in women’s health Apps such as Natural Cycles° achieve FDA 510k approval for use as a contraception technology.  Femtech companies such as Wild.AI, are helping provide guidance for workout intensity and planning based on their cycle.  Others, such as obé Fitness,  are helping women optimize their training and nutrition based on various stages of life. ❓Why Should a Fitness or Wellness Business pay attention? Because integrating with wearables is good business.  Myzone® has does a great job in helping raise awareness in the industry for over a decade.  Not only will it help your members achieve better health outcomes, but it will help shape your product, content and programming roadmap, deliver better personalization, increase engagement, and reduce churn.

Exciting news from our partner MicroEJ! VEE Wear 2, the newest version of their Wearable OS, brings unmatched versatility and power to cost-effective, low-power smartwatches—now with medical-grade health tracking powered by B-Secur. 👏

This BBC article sparks a vital conversation about the role of technology in transforming healthcare. At B-Secur, we share the belief that the future of healthcare lies in prevention, not just treatment. Wearables like smartwatches, rings, and other body-worn sensors are already helping individuals better understand and manage their health. But for these innovations to truly make a difference, they must be affordable, inclusive and, perhaps most critically, accurate. Without reliable insights, even the most widespread technology risks falling short. According to our recent Market Report, 'The State of Heart Health Technology', only 61% of consumers who own a wearable device feel confident in the accuracy of the heart health data it provides. At B-Secur, we’re raising the bar on accuracy for next-gen wearables with our device-agnostic, FDA-cleared, ECG technology, HeartKey®, that can be relied on by both individuals and clinicians to make informed decisions. Tech-driven care isn’t about over-monitoring - it’s about smarter monitoring - empowering early action, reducing costs, and improving lives. https://lnkd.in/e3jw2h93
