Internet of Things applications in Healthcare

The Internet of Things (IoT) is fundamentally a system which contains smart objects with different sensors, networks, and processing technologies. IoT is regarded as to change the way internet works and carries altogether the areas like machine-to-machine communication, artificial intelligence, big data etc. to work underneath the same umbrella such that cyber space and human (physical systems) are more entangled and hence offers ubiquitous computing giving rise to cyber physical systems. Hence IoT is an integrated system working collectively to provide smart services to the end-users. IoT offers great benefits to us. It provides an environment where smart services are provided to use any activity anytime & anywhere. These smart services are provided through different applications running in the IoT environment. IoT applications examine & consequently help in quick decision-making process for client management. In the present work, application of IoT in the field of healthcare systems is discussed. In any healthcare system, the use of IoT technologies brings convenience to both physicians as well as patients. IoT applications assist in various medical areas like continuous real-time monitoring, management of patient information, management of blood banks etc.
