The Internet of Medical Things IoMT

For many patients and clinicians, various devices and smartphone apps have become crucial in tracking and avoiding chronic illnesses. A new Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has arisen by integrating IoT development with telemedicine and telehealth technology. This method makes use of a variety of wearables, including as ECG and EKG monitors. Other typical medical measurements, such as skin temperature, glucose level, and blood pressure readings, can also be taken.

The Internet of Things market will be valued $6.2 trillion by 2025. In 2020, the healthcare industry will be so reliant on IoT technology that it will account for 30% of the market share for IoT devices.

Practitioners will have many fascinating alternatives for providing care in a more effective manner with the emergence of novel delivery systems, such as the first smart pill approved by the FDA in 2017.

Connectivity issues are still common, as data collection by microcontrollers and smartphones can be disrupted by a variety of environmental factors. To maintain better connections, buffering methods on local microcontrollers must become more robust. Potential security concerns must also be addressed, according to the Ponemon Institute's Sixth Annual Benchmark Study on Privacy and Security of Healthcare Data, which found that 89 percent of healthcare operations had experienced at least one data breach.
