The Application of the Internet of Things in Healthcare

Abstract

Communication and sensing devices, as well as their respective software, have become versatile for Information Technology (IT) solutions in different contexts. The emergent technology known as the Internet of Things (IoT) has helped both practitioners and researchers to design innovative solutions in healthcare. The IoT-enabled healthcare research is significant due to its valuable implications, including higher quality and lower cost of services and reliable preventive care. This paper reviews the current literature on the IoT in healthcare and discusses its applications and enabling technologies, as well as critical challenges.

“…The IoT is the physical devices that communicate each other through an internet network [1]. IoT can also applied to several other research sectors, for example in research [2] that makes smart video surveillance and measurement, research [3] that makes smart homes and shopping centers equipped with certain device security, research [4] about medical applications, research [5] that makes disaster early warning assistants and others. However, devices in IoT are small devices that are widely distributed and have limitations in terms of storage capacity and computing capabilities.…”
