Survey on Sensors and Smart Devices for IoT Enabled Intelligent Healthcare System

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) in the healthcare system is rapidly changing from the conventional hospital and concentrated specialist behavior to a distributed, patient-centric approach. With the advancement of new techniques, a patient needs sophisticated healthcare requirements. IoT-enabled intelligent health monitoring system with sensors and devices is a patient analysis technique to monitor the patient 24 h a day. IoT is swapping the architecture and has improved the application of different complex systems. Healthcare devices are one of the most remarkable applications of the IoT. Many patient monitoring techniques are available in the IoT platform. This review presents an IoT-enabled intelligent health monitoring system by analyzing the papers reported between 2016 and 2023. This survey also discusses the concept of big data in IoT networks and the IoT computing technology known as edge computing. This review concentrated on sensors and smart devices used in intelligent IoT based health monitoring systems with merits and demerits. This survey gives a brief study based on sensors and smart devices used in IoT smart healthcare systems. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.
