ABSTRACT

Healthcare systems worldwide face significant challenges due to demographic shifts, notably the aging population, and the rising prevalence of chronic diseases. Traditional healthcare infrastructures struggle to meet these demands, prompting the need for innovative solutions. This review explores the potential of Internet of Things (IoT) and Cloud Computing technologies to revolutionize healthcare delivery, focusing on remote health monitoring and diagnostics. Wearable health monitoring systems, central to IoT-Cloud solutions, continuously collect and analyze health-related data, providing real-time insights into patient health. These systems offer significant benefits, including enhanced chronic disease management, improved elderly care, and increased healthcare access in remote areas. However, the deployment of IoT-Cloud solutions is not without challenges. Issues related to energy efficiency, data security, and interoperability must be addressed to ensure their effectiveness and sustainability. The review discusses strategies for improving sensor accuracy, energy management, and data security through advanced encryption techniques and robust authentication methods. Additionally, it highlights the importance of developing universal standards for device interoperability and the role of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and 5G in enhancing IoT-Cloud healthcare systems. The objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current landscape, benefits, challenges, and future directions of IoT-Cloud healthcare solutions, emphasizing the need for continued research and innovation to realize their full potential in transforming healthcare delivery.
