The IoT for Healthcare Applications

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a concept of the internet so that all things in our life can connect to the internet or to other to send and receive data to do all functions through the network. IoT is a new concept based on the use of the Internet to facilitate our way of life. The presence of mobile medical applications and mobile health services that have contributed to drawing innovative features of the way to provide health care services. Also, the spread of emerging technologies such as robotics and artificial intelligence, accompanied by the simple exchange and spread of medical information thanks to the internet, and the discovery methods of treatment. This fundamental shift is reflected positively on patient care after it enabled the doctor to give a more good diagnosis and thus get better treatment results. This combination of the features of the IoT in medical devices contributed greatly to improving the quality and effectiveness of medical services. Mobile devices, wireless networks, and other smart services more than 80% of health care institutions which means that more hospitals, institutions, and health centres have activated smart health devices. Today, “IoT” technologies and digital devices connected to the internet are prevalent in hospitals. It has come to the point where it can be said that many doctors and other health care providers have dispensed with paper and have become either totally or largely dependent on devices connected to WiFi networks and tablets. In this study, nine patients have been applying this technique to them, and their results have varied and will be reviewed.
