IoT Coupled Healthcare Systems: A Bibliometric Analysis

The adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the way the health care industry works. IoT en-abled smart and connected solutions like smart sensors, wearable devices, and smart health monitoring systems are used to unleash the potential growth of the health care industry. IoT based health care solutions are on greater priority among IoT service providers since the disruptions caused by the COVID-19. According to experts, there still exist white spots in research studies on the Internet of Things (IoT) and health care Systems. The study conducted in this paper aims to explore emerging global research trends and topical focus in the field of IoT in health care System. Bibliometric analysis is used to analyze the research articles on “Internet of Things” and “Health care Systems” extracted from SCOPUS and WoS database using VoS Viewer tool; the analysis used to assess the growth and research trends of different research fields over a period of time. The parameters considered during analysis include year-wise citations, year-wise publications, keyword clustering analysis, author-wise analysis, country-wise research trends and publication trend over the years. The results showcased that there has been significant change in utilization of IoT in healthcare systems continuously during the period under study conducted.
