What Happens When Wearables Meet Regulation?

The line between a wellness product and a medical device has never been thinner, and the stakes of getting it wrong have never been higher. In this episode of The Sleep Solutions Lab, Dr. DJ speaks with Blythe Karow, CEO of The Karow Advisory Group, about what the current wave of health technology is actually building towards and whether the industry is moving fast enough to get the foundations right. They cover the regulatory pathways that founders consistently underestimate, the quiet shift happening as wearable companies begin building full health ecosystems around their devices, and the uncomfortable questions that AI integration is raising around data privacy and validation. It's a conversation that takes the optimism around health tech seriously while refusing to look away from what could go wrong. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
