Iot in healthcare research papers

Connected devices in healthcare—often referred to as the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT)—represent one of the fastest-growing sectors of the IoT market, and is predicted to reach $176 billion by 2026.

To monitor, manage, and protect Internet of Things (IoT) devices in healthcare you must first understand the multiple ways in which IoMT devices are used.

While the most popular example of IoT in healthcare is remote patient monitoring—meaning IoMT devices that collect patient data such as heart rate and body temperature—there are many other examples of IoT in the healthcare industry.

Here’s a look at 10 ways IoT is changing healthcare, as well as how the use of IoT devices for medical purposes impacts IoT security.
