According to WHO standards, population aging in developing countries refers to the population aged 60 and above (including 60 years old) accounting for more than 10% of the total population. According to the results of China's seventh national census, the aging society in China is even more pronounced. With the continuous deepening of the concept of digital technology in healthcare, some modern smart wearable devices such as smart bracelets have emerged, which to some extent solve the problems of aging population, memory decline, and intelligent care for dementia patients, meet people's demand for high-quality medical services, and improve the quality and efficiency of nursing services. Especially in the monitoring of patients with intermittent memory loss, it can play a significant role and help better cope with the shortage of medical resources caused by aging.
According to health surveys of elderly people in various regions, the proportion of so-called healthy elderly people without major organ diseases is low, and medical insurance expenditures have been increasing year by year. The aging trend is becoming increasingly severe, and there is an urgent need to use smart wearable devices for relaxed management of the elderly. Combined with cloud based professional management, it gradually compensates for the shortcomings of professional care. The most prominent manifestation of Alzheimer's disease is memory loss, which is fundamentally different from normal aging memory loss. China has entered an aging society, and the number of elderly dementia patients is increasing. There are currently over 8 million elderly dementia patients in China, and the incidence of safety incidents and adverse events among elderly dementia patients remains high. Elderly dementia patients have characteristics such as intellectual decline, behavioral and personality changes, which are high-risk factors for easy loss.
With the rapid development of modern smart wearable devices, some smart wristbands offer highly accurate location services; There is no significant difference between pulse data and medical electronic blood pressure monitor pulse; The temperature data shows a consistent trend of increase and decrease, and personalized calibration is required to achieve the temperature warning function. Not only can it be used to assess high-risk patients for getting lost, but it can also be used for daily physical function monitoring of elderly patients. For elderly dementia patients, it can maximize the avoidance of guardianship risks caused by missing patients, as well as the possibility of accidents, violent incidents, and even life-threatening injuries. For society, it can also reduce the burden of social risk management.
I hope that the emergence of more modern intelligent products can provide better intelligent care for more patients and their families, and provide more social services for an increasingly aging society in the future.
