Healthcare is a basic necessity for all, and the integration of technology into the healthcare sector has revolutionized traditional treatment methods in a significant manner. According to the Medical Council of India, there are approximately 1674 patients per doctor, highlighting the desperate need for innovative automation solutions. The introduction of Internet of Things (IoT) technology has the potential to address this gap effectively. Post-COVID monitoring of health equipment and remote monitoring of patients’ health through IoT-enabled medical devices have garnered significant attention. These technologies ensure patients’ safety and well-being by providing continuous monitoring and timely intervention. With the growing elder population and nuclear families, there is also a need for solutions that can reduce the dependence on personal monitoring by care givers.
As part of Industrie 4.0 transformation, embedding IoT devices improves healthcare management and operations by modernisation with the enabling of efficiencies and transparency through operational, productivity and usage data insights.
The Statista report projects that IoT healthcare market revenues will reach $108.60 billion in 2024 and $167.70 billion by 2028, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 11.47%.
Ensuring Vaccine, blood and organ delivery under suitable cold conditions can reduce wastage with the support of real time location and temperature monitoring IoT devices.
Simple alarm buttons that allow patients to raise an alarm and notify specific members in the event of hardship conditions such as fallng can help reduce continuous dependence on physical care givers.
Location monitoring of Automated Wheel chair helps tracking disabled patients who may need emergency intervention
Converting the Ambulance into a mobile emergency room with appropirate instruments and remote monitoring along with remote access to doctors can reduce golden hour incidents and save lives .
Sensor-enabled mobile devices allow us to monitor patients with chronic illness remotely and improve the lifespan of patients through drug management, reducing waiting time, improving incident response and reaction while also saving costs for the patient.
