ABSTRACT

Technological advances in the field of Internet of Things (IoT) are exponentially increasing. The miniaturization of smart devices has been a great advantage in interconnection of heterogeneous entities to enable a plethora of services to human kind. Isolated devices like sensors interact with each other to transmit enormous amounts of data in the IoT ecosystem. These data can be accessed from any point of the entities. The healthcare industry has established with a transformative approach in integration of IoT enabled services. There is enormous opportunity in the healthcare domain in integrating heterogeneous entities that will, in turn, be a great advantage to the stake holders. This chapter discusses various services of IoT in the healthcare domain with its challenges.
