Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death globally. An effective strategy to mitigate the burden of CVDs has been to monitor patients' biomedical variables during daily activities with wearable technology. Nowadays, technological advance has contributed to wearables technology by reducing the size of the devices, improving the accuracy of sensing biomedical variables to be devices with relatively low energy consumption that can manage security and privacy of the patient's medical information, have adaptability to any data storage system, and have reasonable costs with regard to the traditional scheme where the patient must go to a hospital for an electrocardiogram, thus contributing a serious option in diagnosis and treatment of CVDs. In this work, we review commercial and noncommercial wearable devices used to monitor CVD biomedical variables. Our main findings revealed that commercial wearables usually include smart wristbands, patches, and smartwatches, and they generally monitor variables such as heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, and electrocardiogram data. Noncommercial wearables focus on monitoring electrocardiogram and photoplethysmography data, and they mostly include accelerometers and smartwatches for detecting atrial fibrillation and heart failure. However, using wearable devices without healthy personal habits will cause disappointing results in the patient's health.
心血管疾病（CVDs）是全球范围内的主要死亡原因。减轻 CVD 负担的有效策略是利用可穿戴技术在日常活动中监测患者的生物医学变量。如今，技术进步通过减小设备尺寸、提高生物医学变量的传感准确性、使设备具有相对较低的能耗、管理患者医疗信息的安全性和隐私性、适应任何数据存储系统、以及相对于传统方案具有合理的成本，为可穿戴技术做出了贡献，传统方案中患者必须去医院进行心电图检查。因此，它为 CVD 的诊断和治疗提供了一个重要的选择。在这项工作中，我们回顾了用于监测 CVD 生物医学变量的商业和非商业可穿戴设备。我们的主要发现表明，商业可穿戴设备通常包括智能手环、贴片和智能手表，它们通常监测心率、血氧饱和度和心电图数据等变量。非商业可穿戴设备专注于监测心电图和光电容积脉搏波数据，它们主要包括加速度计和智能手表，用于检测心房颤动和心力衰竭。然而，如果不养成健康的个人习惯，使用可穿戴设备可能会导致患者健康状况不佳。
