The use of wearable technology is steadily increasing. In orthopedic trauma surgery, where the musculoskeletal system is directly affected, focus has been directed towards assessing aspects of physical functioning, activity behavior, and mobility/disability. This includes sensors and algorithms to monitor real-world walking speed, daily step counts, ground reaction forces, or range of motion. Several specific reviews have focused on this domain. In other medical fields, wearable sensors and algorithms to monitor digital biometrics have been used with a focus on domain-specific health aspects such as heart rate, sleep, blood oxygen saturation, or fall risk. This review explores the most common clinical and research use cases of wearable sensors in other medical domains and, from it, derives suggestions for the meaningful transfer and application in an orthopedic trauma context.
可穿戴技术的使用正在稳步增加。在骨科创伤手术中，肌肉骨骼系统直接受到影响，重点已转向评估身体功能、活动行为和移动性/残疾等方面。这包括用于监测实际步行速度、每日步数、地面反作用力或运动范围的传感器和算法。已有几篇具体综述聚焦于该领域。在其他医学领域，用于监测数字生物特征的可穿戴传感器和算法已被用于特定领域的健康方面，如心率、睡眠、血氧饱和度或跌倒风险。本综述探讨了可穿戴传感器在其他医学领域最常见的临床和研究用例，并从中得出在骨科创伤背景下进行有意义的转移和应用的建议。
