Exploration on IoT based Edge Cloud Computing Techniques for Improving the Patient Information Management System

Clinics around the globe are adopting newer, highly advanced technologies. The Internet of Things (IoT) has emerged due to advancements in information and communication technology. Integration of the IoT with accessible medical devices, and patients and their surroundings has opened up new possibilities for data collecting and more intelligent decisions in recent years. IoT technologies benefit healthcare professionals and patients in today’s medical context because they are used in several treatment domains (like real-time monitoring, patient information and healthcare management). Diverse and distributed devices will gather, analyse, and transmit real-time medical data to open clouds in the upcoming world of IoT for healthcare, allowing for the accumulation, piling, and analysis of elementary data streams in many new procedures and the activation of context-dependent intimations. Healthmonitoring and remote treatment are possible with an IoT paradigm that uses sensors (environmental, wearable, implanted) distributed throughout the local environment.It has been critical to create new technology for storing large amounts of clinical data in recent years. Cloud storage has become enormous, and it is managed by merging IoT and Edge Computing (EC) technologies. According to recent research, the integration of IoT and the cloud has a considerable impact on remote healthcare. This survey report focuses on howIoT devices with EC can enhance people’s health while guaranteeing that medicines and medicine delivery are error-free. This research will act as a source and reference of knowledge regarding smart healthcare for healthcare professionals, researchers, and others interested in learning more about IoT with EC-based healthcare applications.
