Abstract

Introducing ingestible sensors and smart pills to patients creates a kind of breakthrough in how doctors and caretakers can track patients’ compliance and gather health information. This paper aims at examining the effectiveness and application of these technologies in boosting the level of patients’ compliance to prescribed treatments and their positive effects. In many cases, it is possible to use ingestible sensors that are just tiny devices with transmitting capabilities that help to get the data from inside the gastrointestinal tract regarding the medicine intake, internal conditions, and general health state. Studies conducted involves reviewing the literature and case studies on performance, benefits, and issues that relate to these innovations as well as comparing clinical trials. The studies show an improvement in patient follow up and health records, however; the topics such as data security and patients’ acceptance remain somewhat problematic. This study adds value to the knowledge of advanced patient monitoring technologies and stresses on the recommendations that more innovation and attention must be given to these technologies as well as concerns about their ethical use.
