An Overview on the Internet of Things for Health Monitoring Systems
Publication Type:
Conference/Workshop Paper
Venue:
2nd EAI International Conference on IoT Technologies for HealthCare
Abstract
The aging population and the increasing healthcare cost in
hospitals are spurring the advent of remote health monitoring systems.
Advances in physiological sensing devices and the emergence of reliable
low-power wireless network technologies have enabled the design of remote
health monitoring systems. The next generation Internet, commonly
referred to as Internet of Things (IoT), depicts a world populated
by devices that are able to sense, process and react via the Internet. Thus,
we envision health monitoring systems that support Internet connection
and use this connectivity to enable better and more reliable services.
This paper presents an overview on existing health monitoring systems,
considering the IoT vision. We focus on recent trends and the development
of health monitoring systems in terms of: (1) health parameters,
(2) frameworks, (3) wireless communication, and (4) security issues. We
also identify the main limitations, requirements and advantages within
these systems.
