Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) has great importance in the medical industry. The creation of intelligent sensors, intelligent machines, and superior algorithms for lightweight communication made it feasible to connect medical equipment in order to monitor biomedical signals and also to detect illnesses in patients without human intervention. This new IoT and medical equipment connection is called IoMT. This IoMT model is most adapted to this pandemic since every human being has to be interconnected and monitored via a larger communication network. Hence, this article provides an overview of remote healthcare systems, monitoring ingestible sensors, mobile health, smart hospitals, and improved chronic disease management focused on the Internet of Medical Things. Finally, this paper proposes an IoMT architecture and platform to assist with persistent healthcare.
