Abstract

The healthcare landscape has undergone a profound transformation due to digitalisation in recent decades, shifting from manual practices to automated processes. Digital biomarkers have become increasingly important in healthcare across multiple domains for regular monitoring of health parameters, aiding in early disease detection and prevention. The present narrative review aims to explore the utility and advantages of digital biomarkers in healthcare. Notably, the literature emphasises portable biomarkers capable of actively recording user data. These advanced biomarkers efficiently identify physiological, biochemical and psychological parameters, offering predictive capabilities for health conditions and treatment outcomes. In this dynamic healthcare landscape, digital science has brought transformative changes. Investments in digital health show promising outcomes for disease management and patient care. Overall, the integration of digital biomarkers into healthcare represents a significant leap forward in improving healthcare delivery, diagnosis and treatment. It leverages technology to enhance the precision and efficiency of healthcare, ultimately benefiting both healthcare professionals and patients. While the scope of digital biomarkers continues to expand and is expected to grow in the future, addressing potential challenges is essential for sustained innovation in this field.
