health monitoring
Watching body metrics
Health monitoring is the ongoing observation and tracking of a person's physical condition, typically through measurement of vital signs like heart rate, blood pressure, or blood oxygen levels.
The term appears often in contexts of wearable technology: My smartwatch does continuous health monitoring.
Remote health monitoring allows doctors to track patients outside clinical settings.
