Mobile health (mHealth) with continuous real-time monitoring is leading the era of digital medical convergence. Wearable devices and smartphones optimized as personalized health management platforms enable disease prediction, prevention, diagnosis, and even treatment. Ubiquitous and accessible medical services offered through mHealth strengthen universal health coverage to facilitate service use without discrimination. This viewpoint investigates the latest trends in mHealth technology, which are comprehensive in terms of form factors and detection targets according to body attachment location and type. Insights and breakthroughs from the perspective of mHealth sensing through a new form factor and sensor-integrated display overcome the problems of existing mHealth by proposing a solution of smartphonization of wearable devices and the wearable deviceization of smartphones. This approach maximizes the infinite potential of stagnant mHealth technology and will present a new milestone leading to the popularization of mHealth. In the postpandemic era, innovative mHealth solutions through the smartphonization of wearable devices and the wearable deviceization of smartphones could become the standard for a new paradigm in the field of digital medicine.
移动医疗（mHealth）结合实时连续监测引领了数字医疗融合的时代。经过优化的可穿戴设备和智能手机作为个性化健康管理平台，能够实现疾病预测、预防、诊断，甚至治疗。mHealth 提供无处不在且易于获取的医疗服务，加强了全民健康覆盖，促进了服务的无差别利用。本观点探讨了 mHealth 技术的最新趋势，这些技术在形式因素和检测目标方面具有综合性，根据身体附着位置和类型进行分类。通过新的形式因素和传感器集成显示的 mHealth 传感视角的见解和突破，通过提出可穿戴设备的智能手机化和智能手机的可穿戴设备化解决方案，克服了现有 mHealth 的问题。这种方法最大限度地发挥了停滞不前的 mHealth 技术的无限潜力，将呈现一个新的里程碑，推动 mHealth 的普及。在后疫情时代，通过可穿戴设备的智能手机化和智能手机的可穿戴设备化实现创新的 mHealth 解决方案，可能成为数字医学领域新范式的标准。
