Internet of Things and its Applications in Healthcare-A Survey

In this paper, the Internet of Things(IoT) and its applications in the healthcare industry have been discussed. The amalgamation of IoT with healthcare has instigated an increase in the improvement of devices for personalized healthcare management like smart watches, wearable sensors, etc. which have eliminated the need of expensive medical tools, painful procedures and reduced the dependency of patients on medical personnel. It has paved the way for better health opportunities and self-care. The paper also presents a comparison between various sensors used in the field of healthcare and their types, the IoT architecture, tools and technologies used to develop IoT systems, and m-Health apps. The objective of the paper is to clarify the concept of IoT to the reader and to make the reader aware of the present trends used in IoT healthcare.
