Health Services and Applications Powered by the Internet of Medical Things

Abstract

The traditional healthcare system model is now out of date. As the digital era progresses, new advanced technologies and service platforms are highly demanded. The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), a subset of the Internet of Things, is one such technology. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of wireless, interconnected, and linked digital devices that can collect, send and store data without requiring human-to human or human-to-computer interaction. Understanding how established and emerging IoT technologies help health systems provide safe and effective care is more important than ever. For example, the rapid spread of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has alerted the entire healthcare system. The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has dramatically improved the situation, and COVID-19 has inspired scientists to create a new 'Smart' healthcare system focused on early diagnosis, prevention of spread, education, and treatment to facilitate living in the new normal. This paper provides an overview of the IoMT design and how cloud storage technology can help healthcare applications. This chapter should assist researchers in considering previous applications, benefits, problems, challenges, and threats of IoMT in the healthcare field and the role of IoMT in the COVID-19 pandemic. This review will be helpful to researchers and professionals in the field, allowing them to recognize the enormous potential of IoT in the medical world.<br>
