Bluetooth technology provides devices with a low power way to wirelessly connect. It enables connection between many everyday devices including medical devices. From a medical perspective, Bluetooth offers an opportunity for remote patient monitoring and an efficient way to handle data transfer. However, developers should consider the safety, performance, and interoperability requirements of Bluetooth-enabled medical devices. Regulatory bodies all over the world have established guidelines and requirements for validating Bluetooth technology with the goal of making these devices reliable, secure, and comply with health and safety standards.
