E-healthcare: Remote monitoring, privacy, and security

E-healthcare refers to healthcare practice supported by the use of electronic devices and communication. As traditional internet transitions to Internet of Things, with objects and people interacting and sharing information, there are many opportunities to use that technology for improving healthcare outcomes while reducing cost. In this paper we discuss several potential applications of Internet of Things in e-healthcare, including remote monitoring for elderly and sleep disorders, and privacy and security issues associated with electronic medical records and data.
