Keeping up with wearable technology as more features turn up on devices

Abstract

Pharmacists may be seeing an increasing number of smartwatches on the wrists of patients as they pick up their prescription bags off the counter. More than one in five U.S. adults wear a smartwatch or fitness tracker such as a FitBit or Apple Watch, according to Pew Research Center. To what degree those adults take advantage of the many health-related functions of their fitness tracker is less clear.
