Emergence of the Internet and widespread use of mobile computing have brought traditional eHealth beyond the boundary of the clinical setting, evolving to mHealth which is patient-centered and ubiquitous. Faced with the world’s rapidly ageing population and its burden on the healthcare system, one of the intense areas of development in mHealth is continuous patient monitoring. It requires careful integration of wearable sensors and wireless body sensor networks. Unlike traditional ambulatory monitors, sensors for mHealth may appear in various forms, such as watches, jewelry, eyewear, and even smart garments. Recent work have focused on design for wearability, alternative sensing techniques, and mHealth-specific network topologies.
