Abstract

Wearable devices offer transformative potential in emergency medical services and trauma care, facilitating real-time physiological monitoring and early detection of deterioration. For forensic nursing, these technologies provide invaluable objective data for documenting initial patient states, aiding investigations, and establishing causality in trauma cases. However, their widespread adoption necessitates careful consideration of data integrity, chain of custody, privacy, and ethical guidelines. Addressing these challenges is crucial to leverage wearables effectively as reliable evidence, enhancing both clinical care and forensic analysis while safeguarding patient rights and legal integrity.
