Wearable Internet of Things Healthcare Systems, Virtual Care, and Real-Time Clinical Monitoring in Assessing and Treating Patients with COVID-19 Symptoms

Abstract

(Mochari-Greenberger and Pande, 2021) 3 Methodology and Empirical Analysis The data used for this study was obtained and replicated from previous research conducted by Accenture, Amwell, Black Book Market Research, Canada Health Infoway, Deloitte, Doximity, Ericsson ConsumerLab, KPMG, Leger, R2G, Syneos Health, PwC, and Sage Growth Partners Descriptive statistics of compiled data from the completed surveys were calculated when appropriate 4 Survey Methods and Materials The interviews were conducted online and data were weighted by five variables (age, race/ethnicity, gender, education, and geographic region) using the Census Bureau's American Community Survey to reflect reliably and accurately the demographic composition of the United States Study participants were informed clearly about their freedom to opt out of the study at any point of time without providing justification for doing so 5 Results and Discussion Virtual patient care can hinder the patient-provider connection, level of physical checkup, coherence of healthcare delivery, and quality of care (Al-khafajiy et al , 2019) As virtual access to high-risk settings across COVID-19 intensive care units can be performed without requiring personal protective equipment, telehealth will increase the provision of critical supplies while ensuring suitable medical personnel by use of wearable Internet of Things healthcare systems
