Empowering Ageing with Ingenuity: A Scoping Review on the Methods and Technologies Used into Elderly Health Monitoring.

With the rise in global life expectancy, ensuring healthier aging experiences for the older population becomes paramount. This scoping review delves into the technologies employed in the remote health monitoring of the elderly over the past 15 years. Exploring the concept of ”Healthy Ageing” as proposed by the World Health Organization, this paper attempts to highlight the techniques and technologies used in health monitoring of the elderly population. The integration of wearable sensors in health monitoring presents promising avenues for enhancing healthcare delivery to older adults. However, challenges such as limited digital literacy and privacy concerns persist, necessitating innovative solutions for unobtrusive monitoring. This paper discusses the potential of passive and ambient sensors to address these challenges, offering insights into enhancing the well-being of the older population while preserving their independence and privacy.
