Abstract

Healthcare 4.0 has changed dramatically over the last century. It is evolving daily, with physicians and researchers alike developing new tools and strategies. This study analyzes the impact of Industry 4.0 on healthcare (IHC) systems. Therefore, using PRISMA 2015, a systematic literature review was undertaken utilizing articles retrieved from Scopus and Web of Science. A bibliometric and qualitative assessment of 346 and 47 articles was performed. An IHC framework was developed considering the following components: scheduling problems, security issues, COVID-19, digital supply chain, blockchain technology, and artificial intelligence. The study found that during COVID-19, healthcare, and Industry4.0 fused and evolved together, addressing issues including data security, resource allocation, and data transparency. IHC enables a variety of technologies, including the internet of things (IoT), blockchain, big data, cloud computing, machine learning, and information and communication technologies (ICT), to track patient records and contribute to the reduction of social transmission of COVID-19.
