Development of Wearable Device and their Application in Medical IoT

Abstract

Health is one of the most important aspects of life. Still, people still could not get proper health services. It's caused by limitation to the used technology in hospitals and limitations to get to the hospital. Internet-of-Things (IoT) as one of the utmost trending motifs presently, formerly giving so many results in many ways, for example, in healthcare. Wearable devices are currently at the heart of just about every discussion related to the Internet of Things. The requirement for self-health monitoring and preventive medicine is increasing due to the projected dramatic increase in the number of elderly people until 2020.Developed technologies are truly able to reduce the overall costs for prevention and monitoring. This is possible by constantly monitoring health indicators in various areas and in particular, wearable devices are considered to carry this task out. These wearable devices and mobile apps now have been integrated with telemedicine and telehealth efficiently, to structure the medical Internet of Things. This paper reviews wearable health care devices both in scientific papers and commercial efforts.
