A Comprehensive Review on the Emerging IoT-Cloud based Technologies for Smart Healthcare

Internet of Things (IoT) has redefined the operation of next-generation technologies by offering an intelligent framework. Cloud and IoT based system has been widely used in numerous applications for providing automated solutions and services. One of the areas in which the IoT and cloud have been widely used in the healthcare industry. To strengthen the healthcare system many initiatives are undertaken using advanced technologies such as IoT and cloud. So in this paper, a comprehensive review of the different IoT health model that are available are presented. The paper focuses on the various deployment strategies for building a cloud and IoT based system for smart home and smart hospital environment for handling different health-related issues. The paper highlights the various benefits that the IoT offers and also presents the challenges that are most prevalent in realizing the full automation of the healthcare system. The paper also discusses the integration of machine learning techniques for processing health data in the cloud to provide quality healthcare and modernize the healthcare system.
