The aging of the social population has gradually changed the traditional “hospital-centered health care” model.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) shows unique advantages in the diagnosis and treatment of chronic diseases.However,the traditional four-diagnosis model of TCM,personal subjective knowledge and experience of doctors,and only static data collected,have restricted the rapid development of TCM.In recent years,TCM has developed into a national strategy,and the TCM industry should develop together with new technologies.With the continuous development and improvement of technologies such as micro/nanotechnologies,flexible electronic devices,electronic skin,implantable chips,and 3D printing,wearable devices have been widely used in the medical and health field,realizing telemedicine.Wearable technology has shown great application potential in TCM diagnosis,efficacy evaluation,health preservation,meridian/collateral diagnosis and treatment,and prevention of disease.In the future,the cooperation between doctors and engineers and interdisciplinary integration will promote the rapid development of the TCM health industry.This article reviewed the application of wearable technology in TCM in the recent five years.
