Introduction: IoT's blend with non-invasive sensors has made health state prediction possible and constant real-time monitoring transformed healthcare. Using photoplethysmography (PPG) and electrocardiograms (ECG), this device evaluates important parameters including heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, and blood pressure. As healthcare systems face increasing demands, this technology provides a patient-centered and efficient method for long-term health tracking—needed for early intervention and management of chronic diseases. Objectives: The main goal is to evaluate using time-series data from PPG and ECG sensors the efficiency of an IoT-enabled health monitoring system coupled with machine learning models in predicting health conditions including arrhythmias and hypoxia. Methods: This system detects events based on temporal pattern recognition by use of Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and Random Forest classifiers. Noise reduction is preprocessed and wearable device data is labeled for training of machine learning models. The design combines wearable sensors, a smartphone app, and cloud-based analysis for continuous monitoring and real-time input. Results: Experimental data shows that the LSTM model attained a 95% accuracy while the Random Forest classifier attained a 92.5% accuracy. Both models displayed remarkable accuracy and recall even while the LSTM model excels in identifying anomalies in time-series data and the Random Forest classifier skillfully detects health events depending on certain criteria. Conclusions: This study demonstrates the capability of IoT-based health monitoring systems to enhance patient outcomes through continuous, non-invasive monitoring and predictive analytics. Despite its potential, difficulties persist, including data security, sensor reliability, and energy efficiency, necessitating additional research for broad use and clinical integration.
