Abstract
In this issue of Journal of Medical Systems, Neri et al. share results from their study in which they compared the YouCare device to a standard Holter monitor. The wearable used in the study incorporates a single electrocardiogram lead in a crop top garment that is customized for each patient. This editorial discusses the YouCare device, the study findings, and their clinical relevance and impact in the context of wearable technology.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Medical Systems provides a forum for the presentation and discussion of the increasingly extensive applications of new systems techniques and methods in hospital clinic and physician''s office administration; pathology radiology and pharmaceutical delivery systems; medical records storage and retrieval; and ancillary patient-support systems. The journal publishes informative articles essays and studies across the entire scale of medical systems from large hospital programs to novel small-scale medical services. Education is an integral part of this amalgamation of sciences and selected articles are published in this area. Since existing medical systems are constantly being modified to fit particular circumstances and to solve specific problems the journal includes a special section devoted to status reports on current installations.
