Emis : Are wearables helping the right people?

February 29, 2016 at 10:42 am EST

One in ten people in the UK has now used wearable devices, smartphones or apps to track their health and wellbeing.

'The figure is around one in five for millennials. Given my firm support for any technology or innovation that supports patient-centric healthcare this is - to me - a very pleasing statistic. However, it also requires broader context, which is in part provided by a recent report from UK innovation foundation Nesta.'

Chris Spencer's latest blog for the Huffington Post looks at the take-up of wearable health technology, and how it could grow in the future.
