A Review of Commercial and Non-Commercial Wearables Devices for Monitoring Motor Impairments Caused by Neurodegenerative Diseases

Abstract: Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) are among the 10 causes of death worldwide. The effects of NDDs, including irreversible motor impairments, have an impact not only on patients themselves but also on their families and social environments. One strategy to mitigate the pain of NDDs is to early identify and remotely monitor related motor impairments using wearable devices. Technological progress has contributed to reducing the hardware complexity of mobile devices while simultaneously improving their efficiency … Show more

“…However, medical devices relying on built-in batteries present drawbacks, necessitating periodic surgeries for replacements, with associated risks and financial burdens [1]- [11]. To address these challenges, various wirelessly powered technologies, including inductively coupled WPT, capacitively coupled short-ranged WPT, and newer options like ultrasonic, mid-field, and far-field coupled WPT, are widely used for implants and wearables, although challenges persist [1]- [2], [13]- [15], [20]- [23], [35]. Inductive power links face issues like suboptimal performance during misalignments, requiring innovative design solutions [1]- [2], [35].…”

“…The implantable and wearable medical devices encompass a wide range of applications, which can be categorized as follows: 1) brain-related diseases and neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs): brain-machine interfaces (BMIs), deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrodes and implants, neuro-stimulator, neuro-prosthetics, optogenetic implants, and brain-wearables for monitoring NDD-related motor impairments [1], [13], [14], cochlear implant, retinal implant [1], [3], 2) cardiovascular diseases: pacemakers, defibrillators, ventricular assist devices (VADs) [1], [15], stents, cardiac loop recorders [16], 3) tissue repair and regeneration: photo-bio-modulation (PBM) and lowlevel light/laser therapy (LLLT) [17]- [19], 4) gastrointestinal diseases and urology: wireless capsule endoscopy [5], [6], insulin pump, implanted bladder stimulator [20], 5) monitoring multiple physiological parameters in real-time: implantable and wearable biosensors [1], smart electronic contact lens [21], fitness tracker, smart textiles with integration of wearable medical devices (WMDs) [22], and 6) others: orthopedic implants, foot drop implants, bone growth stimulator [1], [20], floating implants capable of electromyography (EMG) sensing [23], portable pulse monitoring [24], doppler ultrasound blood flowmeter used for a smart graft [25] and more.…”
