Abstract

Recently, extensive research into healthcare services and their technological advancements is being carried out globally. The Internet of Things (IoT) has proven to be a predominantly potential candidate in these advancements. IoT supports infrastructure development in connecting a wide range of medical devices, sensors, and health practitioners in order to ensure the best medical treatment for patients in both cities and remote places. This has enabled the IoT to provide major support in medical application, giving rise to assisted healthcare facilities. The IoT ecosystem has a complicated architecture, with several components interacting and an evolving variety of applications for users. This is a comprehensive and interdependent system that involves real-time data analysis, interconnections of device, data transfers, and analysis. The IoT creates a connected ecosystem developed from several intelligent systems that integrates respondents with machines and allows for statistics decision making. A network of interconnected devices that perceive vital data related to medical conditions of patients in real time is referred to as the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), a healthcare application of IoT technology. Sensors used for sensing real-time data related to monitoring temperature, blood pressure levels, heartbeat levels, specialized signal converters, and communication interfaces can be added to existing medical facilities to turn them into IoMT devices. IoMT can be used to create wearable devices, home-care and personal-care medical devices, and mobile healthcare apps, along with creating communication with medical specialists in a given area. The IoMT system’s challenges and ecosystem interface requirements are also a matter of concern considering the complexity of the systems. This study offers a comprehensive evaluation of the various domains of use of IoMT, as well as its future scope and challenges. Recent advances in sensor technology, networks, cloud storage and processing, mobility, and big data analytics have made it possible to create affordable smart medical devices and a connected healthcare environment.
