Evolution of Wearable Devices with Real-Time Disease Monitoring for Personalized Healthcare
Open accessAbstract
Wearable devices are becoming widespread in a wide range of applications, from healthcare to biomedical monitoring systems, which enable continuous measurement of critical biomarkers for medical diagnostics, physiological health monitoring and evaluation. Especially as the elderly population grows globally, various chronic and acute diseases become increasingly important, and the medical industry is changing dramatically due to the need for point-of-care (POC) diagnosis and real-time monitoring of long-term health conditions. Wearable devices have evolved gradually in the form of accessories, integrated clothing, body attachments and body inserts. Over the past few decades, the tremendous development of electronics, biocompatible materials and nanomaterials has resulted in the development of implantable devices that enable the diagnosis and prognosis through small sensors and biomedical devices, and greatly improve the quality and efficacy of medical services. This article summarizes the wearable devices that have been developed to date, and provides a review of their clinical applications. We will also discuss the technical barriers and challenges in the development of wearable devices, and discuss future prospects on wearable biosensors for prevention, personalized medicine and real-time health monitoring.

By integrating data from wearable devices, continuous glucose monitors, and genetic testing, generative AI models can offer real-time, adaptive recommendations that evolve as the patient's condition changes.
“By integrating data from wearable devices, CGMs, and genetic testing, these models can offer real-time, adaptive recommendations that evolve as the patient’s condition changes (58).”
From Generative artificial intelligence in predictive analysis of diabetes and its complications: a narrative review (2025) · cites this paper as [58]
The Introduction describes real-time monitoring by wearable devices, and the Conclusions say accurate monitoring requires machine-based analysis of personal data while noting genetics as a factor in health. The wrist-mounted devices section describes a glucose-monitoring watch. None of these passages says that generative AI integrates wearable, CGM, and genetic-testing data to deliver adaptive recommendations as a patient’s condition changes. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
