Abstract

Expectations and investments related to health services have changed to prior detection of illnesses, monitoring of health conditions, improvement of healthy lifestyle and overall quality of life. Physicians' willingness to follow their patients health status by increasing the number of self-care activities that can be done at home and the level of awareness of individuals / patients has increased the need for wearable technology. Wearable technology is defined as any electronic device that can be affixed to the body and placed inside a dress or accessory. In this work, the definition of wearable technology increasingly used around the world, its importance and its level of use in the world are explained. Besides this, some suggestions have been offered by mentioning the relationship of wearable technologies with health and health care, its possible contributions to health and healthcare services and for what purposes it can be used.

Özet

Sağlık hizmetleriyle alakalı beklentiler ve yatırımlar; hastalıkların daha önceden tespitine, sağlık durumlarının izlenmesine, sağlıklı yaşam tarzı ve genel yaşam kalitesinin arttırılmasına yönelik değişmiştir. Doktorların hastalarının durumlarını hastane dışında da uzun süre takip edebilme isteği, evde yapılabilecek öz bakım faaliyetlerinin artması ve bireylerin/hastaların bilinç düzeylerinin gelişmesiyle sağlık durumlarını takip etme istekleri giyilebilir teknolojilere olan ihtiyacı arttırmıştır. Giyilebilir teknolojiler, vücuda yapıştırılabilen, elbise ya da aksesuarların içine yerleştirilebilen tüm elektronik cihazlar olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada dünya çapında kullanımı gittikçe yaygınlaşan giyilebilir teknolojilerin tanımı, önemi ve dünyadaki kullanım düzeyleri açıklanmıştır. Bunun yanı sıra giyilebilir teknolojilerin; sağlık ve sağlık hizmetleriyle ilişkisinden, sağlığa ve sağlık hizmetlerine muhtemel katkılarından ve hangi amaçlar için kullanılabileceğinden de bahsedilerek öneriler sunulmuştur.
