IoT and the Future of Healthcare: Revolutionizing Remote Patient Monitoring

The Internet of Things (IoT) transforms the healthcare service into innovative avenues of remote patient monitoring (RPM), monitoring real-time trends about patients outside a traditional clinic environment. Herein, a case is described, focusing attention on the power of IoT while enabling RPM - data collection and transfer, transmitted in real time across several health-generating devices or instruments, such as wearable sensors, and home-monitoring systems, as well. RPM has proven itself to be the most effective in the management of chronic diseases, fewer hospital visits, and improved outcomes for patients by continuous and tailored care. Challenges in data privacy, device interoperability, and regulatory compliance continue to persist, although the transformative power of RPM lies in its ability to further change healthcare in more proactive, accessible, and efficient manners by leveraging breakthroughs like AI and 5G. This paper identifies the advantages, disadvantages, and future possibilities of IoT in RPM and places critical emphasis on the future shaping of patient-centered care.
