Smart wristbands may spot infections before they turn serious
NCT ID NCT07334925
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study reviewed 1,284 patients to see if wearable wristbands that track white blood cells and C-reactive protein can detect infections after surgery. The wristbands also use artificial intelligence to spot infections early. The goal is to find out if these devices are accurate and practical for everyday hospital use.
