Abstract
Healthcare is considered as the key factor of economic and social tasks in all over the world. The use of the Internet of things (IoT) for healthcare is an important initiative of development. The present study aims to explore the role of the Internet of things (IoT) and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) for healthcare. The study explores the IoT and WSN are the advance emerging innovations for tracking health factors such as body temperature monitoring, blood pressure monitoring, glucose level monitoring, temperature, electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring, and heart rate monitoring, etc. It monitors several patients in a hospital-based large dataset as well as monitor the patient within a different location with the help of sensors as called the distant based healthcare monitoring system. The study concluded that IoT and WSN based healthcare system are easier and cost-reducing and advance innovations for healthcare security and supporting technology to provide on-time treatment to patients.
