A Comprehensive Review on Wireless Healthcare Monitoring: System Components

Abstract

Healthcare monitoring systems in hospitals and other health facilities have grown significantly, and portable healthcare monitoring systems using emerging technologies such as Internet of Things (IoT) technologies have aided the advancement of healthcare monitoring systems. Many studies have focused on intelligent healthcare systems in an IoT context to improve components, including wearable sensors and hardware devices, intelligent data collecting and processing, and network connections. Even while these applications are necessary and helpful for enhancing wireless healthcare settings related to monitoring, detection, and diagnostics, it might be challenging to fully understand how IoT characteristics are currently intertwined with its architecture. Accordingly, this work adds to the academic literature by thoroughly reviewing all significant areas of wireless healthcare monitoring system advancements. This research also examines a state-of-the-art healthcare monitoring system component under IoT. One hundred and ninety-four related articles were collected and filtered based on the system components defined. This study includes a thorough review and a list of genuine concerns with novel critical solutions. The study can facilitate academics and practitioners by giving them direction and vital information for future research.
