Abstract
Described herein are systems and methods for improving the reliability and accuracy of wearable physiological monitoring devices. A wearable monitoring device may comprise an inner surface configured for at least partial contact with a targeted tissue region of a person. The inner surface may comprise one or more outwardly projecting raised regions. The monitoring device may further comprise a physiological sensor, one or more components of which may be located at or near a raised region of the inner surface. In this manner, sufficient contact between the targeted tissue region and the inner surface, as well as proper placement of the one or more components of the sensor relative to the targeted tissue region, may be achieved. The accuracy and reliability of the monitoring device may also be less susceptible to the effects of ambient light and/or the movements of the user.
