● Vibration sensors are used to monitor human movement, such as gait analysis and they can provide valuable data for assessing mobility, balance, and detecting abnormalities in movement patterns.

● The article explores how vibration sensors are integrated into wearable health devices, and these devices can monitor vital signs such as heart rate, respiratory rate, and sleep quality, providing continuous health monitoring


Abstract

Recently, vibration sensors, initially confined to industrial use, have emerged as pivotal tools in medical practice. This article delves into their myriad applications within healthcare, underscoring their potential to reshape patient care paradigms. From wearable gadgets to cutting-edge medical equipment, the incorporation of vibration sensors holds promises to redefine patient monitoring, diagnostics, and therapeutic strategies. By integrating these sensors, healthcare professionals gain novel insights into physiological dynamics, ultimately improving patient outcomes. The integration of vibration sensors into medical practice not only enhances the accuracy and efficiency of health monitoring and diagnostics but also opens up new avenues for personalized medicine. As these technologies continue to evolve, they hold the promise of transforming healthcare delivery, making it more responsive, proactive, and patient-centric.
