Abstract

The recent decade has seen considerable changes in the way the technology interacts with human lives and almost all the aspects of life be it personal or professional has been touched by technology. Many smart devices have also started playing a vital role in many fields and domains and the internet of things (IoT) has been the harbinger of the advent of IoT devices. IoT devices have proven to be monumental in imparting ‘smartness' in the otherwise static machines. The ability of the devices to interact and transfer the data to the internet and ultimately to the end-user has revolutionized the technological world and has brought many seemingly disparate fields in the technological purview. Out of the many fields where IoT has started gaining momentum, one of the most important ones is the healthcare sector. Many wearable smart devices have been developed over time capable to transmit real-time data to hospitals and doctors. It is essential for tracking the progress of the critically ill patients and has opened the horizon for attending patients remotely using these smart devices.
