Abstract

The rapid advancements in Internet of Things (IoT) technology have revolutionized various sectors, and healthcare is no exception. This paper focuses on the development and implementation of robust IoT-based healthcare monitoring systems. These systems leverage the integration of sensors, wireless communication, and cloud computing to provide real-time data analytics, remote patient monitoring, and improved patient outcomes. The paper discusses the key components of such systems, including wearable devices for continuous health monitoring, wireless connectivity for data transmission, secure cloud infrastructure for data storage and processing, and applications for data interpretation and decision-making. Challenges such as privacy concerns, data security, and interoperability are addressed, along with potential solutions to ensure the effectiveness and reliability of IoT-based healthcare monitoring systems. The paper concludes by highlighting the significance of IoT technology in transforming the healthcare industry and the importance of ongoing research and development in this field.
