Internet Of things (IOT) is a system that
connects objects using embedded electronics, network connectivity and sensors.
It gathers devices & shares the information, making it feasible to collect
& analyze data faster and correctly. It is used in healthcare sector for
improving real-time communication between patients & the care providers.
IoT applications are frequently used to improve quality of care, access to
care, and reduce the cost of the total care.
According to study, “IoT

& Services: (Network Connectivity, Application, and Consulting,
Integration, Maintenance), Applications (Telemedicine, Clinical Care,
Diagnostic, Drug Management, Cognitive Assessment, AI, Additive Manufacturing),
By RegionsGlobal Market Drivers, Opportunities, Trends, and Forecasts,
2016-2022” some of the major companies that are currently working in
the IOT in healthcare market are AirStrip Technologies, General Electric
Company(GE Healthcare), Medtronic, Inc., IBM Corp.,Vodafone, Vivify Health
Inc., Honeywell Life Care Solutions, Stanley Healthcare, Proteus Digital
Health, Inc., SAP SE, Cisco Systems Inc., Koninklijke Philips N.V., Qualcomm

Based on the types, the IOT healthcare market
is segmented into biopharma, payer and provider and by component market is
segmented into system & software, medical devices and services. System
& software is further sub-segmented into network bandwidth management,
application security, remote device management, data analytics and network
security. Medical devices are sub-segmented into implantable medical devices,
wearable external devices and stationary medical devices. Services are
sub-segmented into consulting & training or education, system integration
services and support & maintenance services.
Based on the connectivity technology, the
market is segmented into Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Near Field Communication
(NFC), Wi-Fi, cellular, ZigBee and satellite. Based on the application, the
market is segmented into connected imaging, clinical operations & workflow
management, telemedicine, medication management and impatient monitoring etc.
Telemedicine includes remote patient monitoring, store-and-forward telemedicine
and interactive telemedicine. In addition, based on the end-user, the market is
segmented into Government and Defense Institutions, research & diagnostic
laboratories, hospitals or surgical centers & clinics, Clinical Research
Organization (CRO) and others.
The market of IOT in healthcare is generally
driven by technologically advanced healthcare IT infrastructure, followed by
increase in penetration of the connected devices in healthcare, rise in the
healthcare expenditure prompting cost cutting initiatives, collaboration among
companies, implementation of IoT solutions for reduced cost of care, growth in
the demand for remote patient monitoring (for improved out-of-hospital care),
increase in the number of initiatives supporting eHealth & digital health
and proliferation of smart-phones usage etc. The market restraint analysis
includes lack of medical expertise, accuracy of sensors, lack of governance
standards, increased interoperability and the risks associated with the
hospital security and lack of data privacy. Additionally, some of the major
drivers which could impact the market substantially are growth potential in
emerging economies and rising adoption of tele-presence technology etc.
It is anticipated that the IOT in healthcare
market to reach at US $158.0 billion, by 2022. In the forecast period it is expected
that the market to grow at a rapid pace owing to rise in prevalence of chronic
& lifestyle associated diseases.
