Summary: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and metabolic disorders (MDs) have surfaced as formidable challenges to global health, significantly imperiling human well-being. Recently, microneedles (MNs) have garnered substantial interest within the realms of CVD and MD research. Offering a departure from conventional diagnostic and therapeutic methodologies, MNs present a non-invasive, safe, and user-friendly modality for both monitoring and treatment, thereby marking substantial strides and attaining pivotal achievements in this avant-garde domain, while also unfurling promising avenues for future inquiry. This thorough review encapsulates the latest developments in employing MNs for both the surveillance and management of CVDs and MDs. Initially, it succinctly outlines the foundational principles and approaches of MNs in disease surveillance and therapy. Subsequently, it delves into the pioneering utilizations of MNs in the surveillance and management of CVDs and MDs. Ultimately, this discourse synthesizes and concludes the primary findings of this investigation, additionally prognosticating on the trajectory of MN technology.
