Patients with severe COVID-19 disease require monitoring with pulse oximetry as a minimal requirement. In many low- and middle- income countries, this has been challenging due to lack of staff and equipment. Wearable pulse oximeters potentially offer

CONCLUSIONS: Wearable devices that measure changes in HRV, such as smart watches, rings, and bracelets, provide information that allows identifying the COVID-19 infection during the presymptomatic period as well as its worsening, through an indirect

Wearable devices are integrated analytical units equipped with sensitive physical, chemical, and biological sensors capable of noninvasive and continuous monitoring of vital physiological parameters. Recent advances in disciplines including

After the pandemic of SARS-CoV-2, the use of face-masks is considered the most effective way to prevent the spread of virus-containing respiratory fluid. As the virus targets the lungs directly, causing shortness of breath, continuous respiratory

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this scoping review is to explore how wearable technology is being used to care for older adults in long-term-care facilities.

Recently we have gone through an article regarding the use of white lab coats during the clinical practice class. The author developed the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) questionnaire and distributed it to the medical students of Malaysia.1

CONCLUSION: Undoubtedly, mask mandates during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic have been generating an additional source of potentially harmful exposition to toxins with health threatening and carcinogenic properties at population level with almost zero

CONCLUSIONS: Subsequent review of domestic information sources suggested that various factors, not only well-known peer pressure, may have contributed the public's mask affinity in Japan. This work revealed an aspect of Japanese struggle toward

BACKGROUND: With attempts at lifting most COVID-19 pandemic-related restrictions, other common respiratory viruses have caused more health concern than in earlier seasons in pediatric populations.

The United States’ National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) predicts “near-normal hurricane activity” in the Atlantic this coming storm season, said the UN weather agency on Friday, forecasting between five and nine major storms that
