The ageing population’s problems directly impact countries’ socio-economic structure, as more resources are required to monitor the aged population’s health. The growth in human life expectancy is increasing due to medical technologies and nutritional science innovations. The Internet of Things (IoT) is the connectivity of physical objects called things to the Internet. IoT has a wide range of health monitoring applications based on biomedical sensing devices to monitor health conditions. This paper proposes elderly patients’ health monitoring architecture based on an intelligent task mapping approach for a closed-loop IoT healthcare environment. As a case study, a health monitoring system was developed based on the proposed architecture for elderly patients’ health monitoring in the home, ambulance, and hospital environment. The system detects and notifies deteriorating conditions to the authorities based on biomedical sensors for faster interventions. Wearable biomedical sensors are used for monitoring body temperature, heart rate, blood glucose level, and patient body position. Threshold and machine learning-based approaches were used to detect anomalies in the health sensing data. The proposed architecture’s performance analysis is evaluated in terms of round trip time, reliability, task drop rate, and latency performance metrics. Performance results show that the proposed architecture of the elderly patient health monitoring can provide reliable solutions for critical tasks in IoT environments.

The technological advent in smart sensing devices and the Internet has provided practical solutions in various sectors of networking, public and private sector industries, and government organizations worldwide. This study intends to combine the Internet of Things (IoT) technology with health monitoring to make it personalized and timely through allowing the interconnection between the devices. This work is aimed at exploring various wearable health monitoring modules that people wear to monitor heart rate, blood pressure, pulse, body temperature, and physiological information. The information is acquired using the wireless sensor to create a health monitoring system. The data is integrated using the Internet of Things for processing, connecting, and computing to achieve real-time monitoring. The temperature of three people measured by the temperature thermometer is 36.4, 36.7, and 36.5 (°C), respectively, and the average acquired by the monitoring system of the three people is 36.5, 36.4, and 36.5 (°C), respectively, indicating that the system demonstrated relatively accurate and stable testability. The user’s ECG is displayed clearly and conveniently using the ECG acquisition system. The pulse rate of the three people tested by the system is 78, 78, and 79 (times/min), respectively, similar to the medical pulse meter results. The physiological information acquired using the semantic recognition, matching system, and character matching system is relatively accurate. It concludes that the human health monitoring system based on the Internet of Things can provide people with daily health management, instrumental in heightening health service quality and level.

This paper proposes a Smart Health Monitoring System (SHMS) which monitors and takes care of patient's health. Nowadays in hospital, taking care of patient is a big task because of growing population and also regular check-ups are not at all possible. The percentage of death rate by only heart attack is 24.8%, which is not higher but these death rate can be reduced by monitoring the condition of patient's heart every second continuously. This can be achieved with the help of a technology called Internet of Things (IoT). The concept of IoT is that it can connect any device with the internet. Here the sensor can measure the heart rate and connects to the internet. Then it will update the status of the patient's heart to the person who wants to monitor the patient. Hence the prevention of death due to heart attack is being introduced. This idea can also be implemented for workers in industry

Healthcare has become one of the principal issue with the rise in human population and medical expenditure. For a healthy life, it is essential to follow human body’s vital signals. Continuous Monitoring of patient’s vital signals cannot be provided outside hospital. As it is hard to monitor the patient’s condition for 24 hours, it was proposed in this paper to observe continuously the condition of patient despite the patient being busy with his routine and to screen the health status to the doctors through Internet of Things. This paper proposes health monitoring system using non-intrusive biomedical sensors that measure five parameters like ECG, SPO2, toxic gas, temperature and blood pressure. Proposed method makes use of Arduino Uno Controller to which non-invasive biomedical sensors are connected. The output is displayed on any digital monitoring system using Arduino Uno. The data obtained from the sensors is uploaded to the Thing Speak cloud to store and to access patient’s information by their doctors or by the concerned for necessary follow-ups in real-time. IoT is a powerful domain where sensors can connect and data is viewed over the Internet.
