Wearable computing have variety of applications in healthcare ranging from muscle disorders to neurocognitive disorders, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and psychological diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, hypertension and so on. Different types of wearable computing devices are used, for example, bio fluidic-place on wearables, textile-place on wearables, and skin-place on wearables including tattoo place on wearables. In drug delivery systems, the wearable computing systems have shown promising developments, increasing its use in personalized healthcare. Wearable contain experiments, which need to be addressed before their consumerist as a fully customized healthcare system. Distinct types of wearable computing devices currently used in healthcare field are reviewed in this paper. Based on various factors, the paper provides an extensive classification of wearable computing devices. Additionally, limitations, current challenges and future perspective in health care is reviewed.
