Abstract
This paper analyses prior literature that identify adoption model for smart wearable healthcare devices. This assessment aims to contribute and identify factors that enable users to adopt wearable devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) based healthcare to monitor blood glucose measuring. This study has set off in quest of research in IoT smart healthcare focusing on blood glucose monitoring based on previous studies on wearable devices for smart healthcare. The key aim of this paper is to provide a summary of published articles and to find the current factors leading to the adoption of wearable devices for smart healthcare. The authors guided a systematic review of wearable devices in smart healthcare to explore the factors of adopting smart healthcare devices. 55 studies were analyzed where 21 studies directly address wearable devices, adoption models, and also IoT systems. Most of the studies covered a few factors; namely Interpersonal Influence, Self-efficiency, Individual Innovativeness, Attitude toward wearable devices, Self-interest, Perceived Expensiveness, and Perceived Usefulness in a wearable fitness tracker or monitoring. Findings show that the effect of trustworthiness has a very extensive potential to be explored to improve the model prediction to measure the adoption of IoT wearable devices in smart healthcare as well as blood glucose monitoring. � 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
