The Bluetooth SIG recently announced that Bluetooth 4.0 and heart rate monitor products supporting Bluetooth version 4.0 will be available soon. The newly approved Bluetooth 4.0 version of the health thermometer profile and heart rate monitor profile has driven the development of Bluetooth thermometers and heart rate monitor products and opened a new era of wireless monitoring devices in the medical and fitness field. Leading manufacturers such as 3M, A&D, Nonin and Omron have more than 40 million Bluetooth products in the healthcare and medical device market. These new wireless devices will further add momentum to the market. .

Dr. Michael Foley, Ph. D., executive director of the Bluetooth Technology Alliance, said: "The trend toward wireless devices using Bluetooth technology is driving growth, and these two profiles are just one of the highlights, along with The new profile was adopted and we look forward to a series of enthusiasm for future Bluetooth products in emerging markets in different fields."

The mobile medical device market will be the first device market to benefit from the Bluetooth 4.0 release, and the wireless smart home and fitness industry will be ready to go. Robert Hughes, chairman of the Medical Devices Working Group and Intel's senior wireless standard architecture engineer, explained: "The importance of a health thermometer profile is far beyond people's imagination. The health thermometer profile is a technology that promotes the integration of Bluetooth 4.0 technology into many medical and fitness devices. The pioneers are also examples of many upcoming medical-related profiles that will be used in a range of devices including blood pressure monitors, weight scales and blood glucose meters."

Principle of operation

The goal of the health thermometer profile and heart rate monitor profile is to achieve wireless monitoring of both body temperature and heart rate functions. Since the introduction of the new 4.0 version of the technology by the Bluetooth Technology Alliance, manufacturers including leading health, medical and fitness equipment have created specific applications for new technologies. For example, a body temperature sticker for measuring body temperature is one of the applications that can be implemented by a health thermometer profile. The device sends body temperature measurement data to the mobile phone every half hour, so that parents can closely monitor the child's fever while not disturbing the child's rest. Body temperature condition. “In the future, people will become more and more familiar with the application of some Bluetooth technologies, and we will also see more innovative applications,” Dr. McFly added. “Bluetooth technology can bring us unlimited possibilities for creating a better life. Sex."

Market size

According to industry analyst firm RNCOS, the mobile medical device market grew at an annual rate of approximately 17% in 2010, while the total market capitalization at the end of 2011 is expected to reach $2.1 billion. The report also pointed out that the mobile medical device market will grow at a compound annual growth rate of nearly 22% from 2012 to 2014. Analysts expect the market for remote patient monitoring to reach $9.3 billion in 2014.

Suke Jawanda, chief marketing officer of the Bluetooth Technology Alliance, said: "This is a huge market opportunity. In the face of such a large market scale, and the numerous existing Bluetooth devices in the market can be connected with new devices, it is not difficult to imagine Why global medical manufacturers such as Omron, A&D, 3M and Nonin will choose Bluetooth technology."

In 2010 alone, more than 1.7 billion Bluetooth products were introduced to the market, and more than 3 billion Bluetooth devices are currently in use worldwide. Jawanda added: "These new devices enable seamless connectivity to large-scale, basic Bluetooth devices, so manufacturers have a new channel that can add value to previously launched products and transform the data transmitted by the device into new applications. Useful information to help end users and their personal care staff, and to enhance the connection between manufacturers and consumers. Looking at the big picture, this is a win-win choice."

The popularity of smartphones in the past few years has become the main reason for the growth of mobile health devices. According to the report, as of the end of 2009, the market share of smartphones was around 21%, and it is expected to reach 50% by the end of 2011. In addition, more than 72% of doctors use smartphones, and smartphones can download mobile health applications as the main reason for their increased usage. At present, Bluetooth technology is applied to almost every smartphone in the world, and Bluetooth 4.0 will be added to new smartphones in the fourth quarter of 2011. It is expected that the market share of smartphones will reach 100% by the end of 2012. .
