The disease that often affects the lung by blocking the airways is known as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). There are several cause of COPD disease and especially smoking behaviour is the major cause of chronic illness. Howeover, offering treatment for COPD patients is a challengeable task, because the symptoms and actions are not similar for all patients. To diminish this problem, the technology called Internet of Things (IoT) is been introduced to monitor the patients and submit the report with a wide range of exactness rates. Furthermore, IoT is designed with different sensor hubs to sense the patient’s body condition with high accuracy. Thus, identification of the disease severity rate is possible by monitoring several biological parameters using different processes and sensors. Analysis of parameters are performed using an efficient Machine Learning (ML) or Deep Learning (DL) approach in a suitable platform. By, using IoT technology, anybody from anywhere can able to access the medical specialist suggestion based on their body conditions. The current review article has aimed to present the uses of IoT in COPD patient monitoring in different ways as well as the function of different models are compared in the form of graphs. Keywords: Biological Parameters, Chronic Diseases, Internet of Things, Sensors, Severity Prediction

“…A similar structure to that discussed above can be found in a smart medicine box which is an emerging research topic integrating digital sensors and networking capability so that they can monitor normal medicines put inside the box. Additional technologies can be applied to the surroundings of the smart medicine box as well for facilitating an electronic reminder for medication adherence [ 101 ], an in-house track and trace system [ 102 ], or an interaction with remote servers for telehealthcare [ 103 , 104 ]. Embedding IoT technologies into pharmaceutical packaging allows normal packages of medicines to become intelligent packaging [ 105 , 106 , 107 ], thus, the requirements for reusing medicines are met where an extension of the real-time information to cloud computing empowers all stakeholders to share data on a single platform.…”

Enhancing Pharmaceutical Packaging through a Technology Ecosystem to Facilitate the Reuse of Medicines and Reduce Medicinal Waste

et al. 2020

Background: The idea of reusing dispensed medicines is appealing to the general public provided its benefits are illustrated, its risks minimized, and the logistics resolved. For example, medicine reuse could help reduce medicinal waste, protect the environment and improve public health. However, the associated technologies and legislation facilitating medicine reuse are generally not available. The availability of suitable technologies could arguably help shape stakeholders’ beliefs and in turn, uptake of a future medicine reuse scheme by tackling the risks and facilitating the practicalities. A literature survey is undertaken to lay down the groundwork for implementing technologies on and around pharmaceutical packaging in order to meet stakeholders’ previously expressed misgivings about medicine reuse (’stakeholder requirements’), and propose a novel ecosystem for, in effect, reusing returned medicines. Methods: A structured literature search examining the application of existing technologies on pharmaceutical packaging to enable medicine reuse was conducted and presented as a narrative review. Results: Reviewed technologies are classified according to different stakeholders’ requirements, and a novel ecosystem from a technology perspective is suggested as a solution to reusing medicines. Conclusion: Active sensing technologies applying to pharmaceutical packaging using printed electronics enlist medicines to be part of the Internet of Things network. Validating the quality and safety of returned medicines through this network seems to be the most effective way for reusing medicines and the correct application of technologies may be the key enabler.

“…The authors evaluated the solution regarding performance analysis and feedbacks that show the feasibility of the system. Srinivas et al [9] proposed an IoT healthcare platform composed of a smart medicine box to monitor patients' health. The device gives alerts (smartphone notifications, indicator light (LEDs), an audible alert -buzzer) allowing patients to take their medicines at the right time; and it updates the information about medicines in the patient's smartphone.…”

“…Smart medicine box generally notifies users about their medicines using smartphone notifications, alarm sound, a visual indicator (LEDs), among others [9] [12]. In general, these boxes present functionalities such as: treatment monitoring [10], noncompliance management [3] [10], health monitoring and diagnostics [9] [10], routine remote monitoring [9], online prescription [3], emergency support [10], pharmacists notification about medicine refill [12], among others. Furthermore, healthcare professionals and pharmacist can have a view about patients' treatment and follow if the prescribed treatment is done correctly [3] [12].…”

Internet of Things (IoT) is a paradigm that has provided improvements for the day-to-day of society. This paradigm has been applied in several domains such as ambient assisted living (AAL), energy, transportation, environmental, urban monitoring, and healthcare. In the healthcare domain, IoT offers many advantages, such as enable continuous health monitoring, improve quality life and comfort, among others. A kind of IoT application in this domain is smart medicine box, a device that provides medicines treatment monitoring of users. It allows health professionals to verify users’ treatment compliance and supports decision-making. Most of the smart medicine box projects found in the literature are still expensive and do not address some characteristics of IoT systems such as scalability, latency, time to response, among others. Taking into account this scenario, this work proposes a low-cost IoT system prototype to support users during their medicines manipulation. The proposal employs edge-computing concept to add intermediate layer improving the communication among devices and services.
