IoT Healthcare – Providing healthcare was once far simpler than it is today. However, there are possibilities for advancing the patient experience and asset management within healthcare facilities.

Historically physicians haven’t had access to a holistic view of a patient’s health; physicians were forced to make treatment decisions with inadequate data. This started to change with the mandate for electronic medical records for the first time. Comprehensive patient medical records could be collected from providers and data from EMR systems.

The emergence of the IoT (Internet Of Things) have the potential life-saving applications within the healthcare industry by collecting data from consumer wearables; this has merged the possibility to arrange and process data beyond conventional clinical scenarios, at the same time advances in technology provide new and low-cost ways to detect diseases. When combined, providers and patients benefit from more comprehensive views of patient health and treatment progress enabling providers to more accurately adjust treatments.

The complete system of patient care could be improved, not to mention the patient’s experience by 2090, 87% of all healthcare organizations will have implemented IoT technology. Today many healthcare devices function in silos, over a third of healthcare organizations don’t apply data from connected devices to other business processes.

The potential for data failure and mistakes in diagnosis effective health care depends on speed and accuracy. We have seen a tremendous range of devices become connected, as IoT takes hold over 50% of devices on healthcare networks.

 

IoT Healthcare

In the next two years, IoT devices like Activity trackers, Coagulation testing, etc. from handheld devices to health records to medical equipment, the industry is adopting the world of connected things with a common language and a single platform.

For these devices to operate, the potential for IoT is limitless. The capability to easily monitor and manage patient health can save valuable minutes every day, without having to visit each patient manually.

The specialists can give a remote diagnosis and track medical assets providing quality care, quickly and managing the healthcare environment more efficiently. Using sensors and Wi-Fi; the ability to locate the right Department in a hospital while recovering essential information becomes straightforward for both caregivers and patients.

Nearly 3/4 of healthcare leaders, who have adopted IoT believe its significant benefit will be to monitor and control medical devices, sensors from patient’s heart monitor to temperature gauges this real-time data already exists in healthcare. Now it can be used to create a safer and more effective environment through a single application on a mobile device, patients and staff can securely manage IoT data.
IoT Healthcare means an accessible and more efficient patient care experience, allowing staff to do their jobs better which is why 76% of healthcare leaders predict it’s going to transform their industry.
