Biowearables 101: Health Tech That Goes Deeper
Biowearables 101: Health Tech That Goes Deeper
New health wearables give you more options to continuously monitor your glucose levels and understand your body.
新的健康佩戴設備爲您提供更多選項，幫助您持續監測血糖水平並了解自己的身體。
NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESSWIRE / June 12, 2024 / More and more people, whether they're weekend warriors or people living with diabetes, are coming to understand the impact that glucose has on their mood, sleep and health.
2024年6月12日，馬薩諸塞州北安普敦/ ACCESSWIRE/——越來越多的人，無論是週末的戰士還是患有糖尿病的人，都逐漸了解葡萄糖對他們的情緒、睡眠和健康的影響。
This growing movement is thanks in part to a relatively tiny piece of tech called a biowearable.
這場不斷擴大的運動部分要感謝稱爲生物佩戴式設備的微型科技。
What is a Biowearable?
什麼是生物佩戴式設備？
You might be familiar with health wearables in the form of watches or rings, but our biowearables go deeper, literally connecting with your body to deliver real-time insights right to your smartphone.
您可能已經知道佩戴在手錶或戒指上的健康佩戴設備，但是我們的生物佩戴式設備更深入，直接與您的身體連接，實時向您的智能手機提供洞察力量。
The insights come from the biowearable's sensor, which measures your glucose level and relays that data every minute. Knowing where you stand helps you make healthy choices in the moment - choices that can help improve your energy, lose weight or manage your diabetes.
這些洞察力量來自生物佩戴式設備的傳感器，它每分鐘測量一次您的血糖水平並傳輸這些數據。了解自己的身體狀況有助於您在當時做出健康選擇——這些選擇可以幫助您保持精力充沛、減肥或管理糖尿病。
Athletes can draw on this information, too. Elite marathoner Eliud Kipchoge is a prime example. He was wearing an Abbott biowearable in 2022 when he finished the Berlin Marathon in 2:01:09, a world record at the time.
運動員也可以從這些信息中獲取幫助，上馬拉松的精英選手埃利烏德·基普喬格就是一個主板的例子。在2022年的柏林馬拉松比賽中，他佩戴着雅培的生物佩戴設備，在2:01:09的成績中創造了當時的世界紀錄。
Pretty great, right?
很棒，對吧？
The rise of biowearables started in the medical space with our FreeStyle Libre technology for people with diabetes, which is now used by about 6 million people worldwide.1 Studies of the FreeStyle Libre portfolio continue to show positive health outcomes from continuous glucose monitoring.
生物佩戴式設備的崛起始於我們爲糖尿病患者提供的FreeStyle Libre科技，在全球已經有約600萬人使用。1FreeStyle Libre系列的研究持續顯示連續血糖監測帶來了積極的健康結果。
Now, with FDA clearance of our new Lingo biowearable designed for general consumers interested in improving their overall health and wellness, and our Libre Rio biowearable designed for people with Type 2 diabetes who do not use insulin, there are even more ways to access this life-changing technology.
現在，隨着我們爲廣大關注健康和幸福的普通消費者設計的新Lingo生物佩戴式設備和我們爲2型糖尿病患者設計、且不使用胰島素的Libre Rio生物佩戴式設備獲得FDA認證，我們可以更多地接觸到這種改變生活的技術。
How Do Biowearables Work?
生物佩戴式設備如何工作？
Biowearables have two main components:
生物佩戴式設備有兩個主要組成部分：
- The biosensor that measures data. A tiny, flexible filament (the width of three human hairs) on the back of the biosensor is inserted painlessly below the skin's surface and collects information from interstitial fluid found in the space between cells.
- A smartphone app that receives that data and turns it into information you can act on. For example, it might alert you to a dangerously low glucose level or let you know where your glucose level is trending toward so you can be proactive about it.
- 測量數據的生物傳感器。傳感器背面的一根微小、靈活的絲（寬度相當於三根人頭髮的寬度）無痛插入皮膚下方的間質液中收集信息。
- 將數據接收並將其轉換爲您可以採取行動的信息的智能手機應用程序。例如，它可能會向您發出警報，提示血糖水平過低，或讓您知道血糖水平的走勢，以便您可以積極應對。
Which Biowearable is Right for Me?
哪種生物佩戴式設備適合我？
Lingo is designed for general consumers who are looking to improve their overall health and wellness.
Lingo適用於尋求改善整體健康和幸福感的普通消費者。
Libre Rio is designed for adults with Type 2 diabetes who do not use insulin and typically manage their diabetes through lifestyle changes. Like Lingo, it is being made available over the counter.
Libre Rio是爲不使用胰島素通常通過生活方式改變來管理2型糖尿病的成年人設計的。與Lingo一樣，它也可以非處方購買。
FreeStyle Libre is our world-leading continuous glucose monitor2 for people living with diabetes.
FreeStyle Libre是我們世界領先的連續血糖監測儀，用於糖尿病患者。2適用於糖尿病患者。
In the future, we could see biowearables with even more offerings. Glucose is just one of several important biomarkers that play a role in health and wellness. Don't be surprised if you eventually see biowearables that can measure and interpret your body's levels of ketones, lactate and more.
未來，我們可能會看到更多功能的生物穿戴設備。葡萄糖僅是影響健康和健康狀況的幾種重要生物標誌物之一。如果您最終看到了可以測量和解釋您體內酮類、乳酸和更多水平的生物穿戴設備，不要感到意外。
The future of biowearables is growing, and it's every bit as bright and diverse as the people who can live healthier because of them.
生物穿戴設備的未來正在不斷增長，它與能因其而更健康的各種多樣化的人一樣充滿希望。
