Abstract
The presence of wireless and mobile technologies in developing countries, the availability of low-cost, miniaturized wireless sensors, as well as the cost-efficient services provided by new hardware infrastructures have enabled new healthcare services, or new levels of quality and cost-efficiency in established ones. One crucial aspect of Healthcare 4.0 is the concept of P4 in Medicine: predictive, preventive, personalized and participatory. This approach, based on a comprehensive understanding of each patient biology, opposite to clustering patients into treatment groups, is being applied to reduce global health budgets by minimizing unnecessary use of drugs and procedures. These innovations come from the broad set of ICTs, and among them, the pillars of HC4.0 for their importance: IoT, Cloud Computing, and Big Data. Health 4.0 is used to improve the efficiency of physicians by enabling them to optimize resources and data availability. The future of health management will become timesaving and personalized as new technologies will empower individuals to conduct their health monitoring by using cyber–physical systems. Thanks to IoT, Cloud and Fog, as well as Big Data, researchers are allowed to design novel solutions, which are able to efficiently and effectively renew consolidated healthcare practices.
