Abstract
This review paper focuses on analyzing research work related to the utilization of smartwatches in health informatics. In recent years, we have seen an ascent in life expectancy due to considerable innovations in the healthcare industry. Sicknesses identified with the cardiovascular framework, eye, respiratory framework, skin, and emotional well-being are inescapable around the world. Most of these sicknesses can be kept away from or potentially appropriately oversaw through consistent examining. To empower ceaseless well-being checking to serve developing medical care needs, moderate, non-intrusive, and simple to-utilize medical services arrangements are basic. The increasing use of wearables watches coupled with health monitoring sensors makes it an essential tech for a continuous and remote health examination. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review of different research work on the utilization of smartwatches to deal with various diseases. For this, we have screened 370 research publications related to smartwatches in health informatics and selected 20 journals for the review that matched our selection criteria. Finally, we discussed future research perspectives and concerns regarding smartwatch-enabled healthcare architecture.
