Abstract Wearable health monitoring devices have emerged as a significant advancement in the integration of bioengineering and healthcare, enabling a continuous tracking of physiological parameters and promoting preventive healthcare practices. This study evaluates the awareness, adoption, and perception of wearable devices using a cross-sectional questionnaire conducted via Google Forms, with 46 valid responses.
Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and mean scores, while qualitative responses were examined through thematic analysis. The results indicate high awareness and moderate-to-high adoption, particularly among younger and technologically familiar individuals. Perception analysis shows that wearable devices are considered useful (mean=3.63) and effective in improving health awareness (mean=3.80) and motivating healthier behavior (mean=4.09). However, concerns regarding accuracy (mean=3.39) and limited reliance for decision-making (mean=3.13) highlight trust-related challenges.
The study concludes that while wearable devices hold strong potential in preventive healthcare, improvement in accuracy and reliability are essential to enhance user trust and adoption.
