A Survey of Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) Applications, Architectures and Challenges in Smart Healthcare Systems

Abstract

Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) or Healthcare IoT is a technological under IoT catering to the healthcare sector. It refers to the interconnection of medical devices, sensors, applications and systems to the Internet. IoMT enables the collection, transmission and analysis of patient’s data in real-time, allowing for remote monitoring and early detection of health issues. IoMT systems present a promising opportunity for prevention, prediction, and monitoring of emerging infectious diseases such as COVID-19. This paper provides a survey of IoMT devices, applications, benefits, challenges, and its impact on the healthcare industry.
