In terms of product functions, wearable devices currently have multiple functions such as health monitoring, medical treatment, sports, entertainment, office, learning, and positioning. Compared with the 15 monitoring categories abroad, there are 13 categories in the domestic category distribution, with sports taking the top spot, accounting for 32.9% of the market share, followed by sleep and body temperature monitoring. Which shows the uneven distribution of products, too much, There is too little situation. It also reflects from the side that the current medical wearable products are still in the primary application stage and have not been well known and used by the public. Smart wearable products have not yet deeply served medical care.

Medical wearable equipment type

If the main purpose of medical wearable equipment is health. It can be roughly divided into sports health and patient monitoring.

In January 2015, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (referred to as FDA) issued two draft guidance on Internet Elizabeth. The FDA detailed the criteria for determining the low-risk platform medical. And health products and made basic recommendations for the risk assessment of the third wave of medical accessories. At present, there is no standard in this regard in China. If standards for medical wearable devices similar to those in the United States can be issued as soon as possible, this market will be greatly regulated, thereby promoting the faster and healthier development of mobile medicine.

At the same time, for these medical wearable companies and related mobile medical platforms. They must not only focus on products but also provide corresponding supporting services. Only when the services are truly implemented can user stickiness be increased and users have long-term use. The desire to meet their medical needs well.
