The Internet of Things (IoT) has the potential to revolutionize healthcare by enabling remote patient monitoring, personalized care and disease prevention. In Ecuador, research on IoT in the healthcare field is rapidly expanding. However, there’s a need for a clearer understanding of the current state of this research. This study examines the contributions of Ecuadorian authors in this field through their publications in two globally impactful bibliographic databases. The methodology employed is a systematic review using the PRISMA statement, resulting in a final stage comprising 23 articles. These publications encompass system proposals, prototypes, and reviews with applications in areas such as epidemiology, cardiology and nursing. The recurrent mention of patient information privacy is a challenge in implementing IoT-based healthcare systems. The conclusions emphasize that future work perspectives should address the challenges identified, considering the growing trend of publications from Ecuadorian authors.

Questionnaires were developed from the coded and validated interviews using the triangulation method. A total of 200 individuals were selected for this study. Results: The results revealed that the strategies for evaluating medical education policies encompass a range of factors. These include a simultaneous focus on institutional and non-institutional agendas, prioritization of social benefits, implementation of economic strategies, updating of resources and information, precise definition and design of policies, executive strategies, and policy considerations. Conclusion: In the evaluation of policies, it is essential to adopt a community-oriented approach, with a focus on decentralization and public interests.
