<p class="Abstract">The Internet of Things (IoT) has not been around for very long. However, since the notion of IoT introduced, most of IoT studies focused on a strategic level such as planning, architectures, standardization, and latest technologies, however, studies of risk management plan of IoT are still lacking.  IoT has been widely used to link existing medical resources and provide reliable, effective and smart healthcare services to elderly and patients with chronic illnesses.  However, a systematic process is missing when managing and anticipating the risk of IoT usage in healthcare.  For this purpose, this paper extensively explores various IoT technologies used in health care services and its security challenges. As a result, IoT Security Risk Model for Healthcare is introduced to cater a complete process of risk management based on ISO/IEC 27005:2018 standard.  It is believed that by having this model, it will emphasize on iterative IoT risk management process as it may increase the depth and detail of the assessment at each iteration.</p>

Wellbeing is fundament requirement. What's more, it is human appropriate to get quality health care. These days, India is confronting numerous medical problems in light of fewer assets. This survey article displays the idea of solving health issues by utilizing a recent innovation, the Internet of Things (IOT). The Internet of Things with their developing interdisciplinary applications has changed our lives. Smart health care being one such IoT application interfaces brilliant gadgets, machines, patients, specialists, and sensors to the web. At long last, the difficulties and prospects of the improvement of IoT-based medicinal service frameworks are talked about in detail. This review additionally summarizes the security and protection worries of IoT, administrations and application of IoT and smart healthcare services that have changed the customary medicinal services framework by making healthcare administration more proficient through their applications.

The high cost of healthcare services, the aging population and the increase of chronic disease is becoming a global concern. Several studies have indicated the need to minimize the process of hospitalization and the high cost of patient care. A promising trend in healthcare is to move the routines of medical checks from a hospital to the patient's home. Moreover, recent advances in microelectronics have boosted the advent of a revolutionary model involving systems and communication technology. This new paradigm, the Internet of Things (IoT), has a broad applicability in several areas, including healthcare. Based on this context, this chapter aims to describe a computer platform based on IoT for the remote monitoring of patients in critical condition. Furthermore, it is planned to approach the current advances and challenges of conceiving and developing a set of technology-centric, targeting issues relevant to underdeveloped countries, particularly in regards to Brazil's health infrastructure.

The significance of Internet of Things (IoT) makes different objects connected and it has also been known as the tech revolution. One of the many applications of IoT is in healthcare to examine the patient’s health report, internet of things makes medical technology more efficient and less complicated by giving access to real-time analysis of the patient’s health, in which it focuses on acquiring the data regarding the patient’s health and eliminate the possible human flaws. In the internet of things, a patient’s health statistics get transmitted through various medical equipment through a gateway, where they are stored and monitored. The main challenges in the implementation of the internet of things for healthcare services are checking all patients from different places. Therefore, the internet of things in the healthcare field gives the basic solutions for effective patient monitoring at less cost and also reduces the tensions between patient outcomes and disease management. This paper gives emphases on the different techniques used to monitor the patients while working for the healthcare department.

Abstract—The Internet of Things (IOT) has gained a significant attention in the last years. It covers multiple domains and applications such as smart home, smart healthcare, IT transportation...etc. the highly dynamic nature of the IOT environment brings to the service discovery new challenges and requirements. As a result, discovering the desirable services has become very challenging. In this paper, we aim to address the IoT service discovery problem and investigate the existing solutions to tackle this problem in many aspects, therefore we present a full comparative analysis of the most representative (or outstanding) service discovery approaches in the literature over four perspectives: (1) the IoT service description model, (2) the mechanism of IoT service discovery, (3) the adopted architecture and (4) the context awareness.
