Maintain strict adherence to evidence-based protocols and targeted interventions to ensure technology enhances, rather than dominates, clinical decision-making.
Balance digital tool integration with clinical judgment by refining guidelines for appropriate testing and interventions, preventing unnecessary medicalization.
Implement stronger human oversight, improve algorithm accuracy, and establish clear guidelines to reduce false alarms, unnecessary testing, and the risks of over-medicalization.
Prioritize customization and personalization of care, critically evaluate the data provided by these tools in conjunction with patient history and preferences, and actively engage patients in the decision-making process. Exercise clinical judgment to interpret data and avoid overutilization of monitoring tools to prevent overmedicalization. Continuous monitoring and evaluation of the effectiveness of these tools in practice, alongside adherence to ethical principles, are essential to mitigate the risk of standardization leading to overtechification. Ultimately, by integrating digital monitoring tools judiciously and in alignment with patient-centered care principles, healthcare providers optimize patient outcomes while minimizing the potential for overmedicalization.
