Internet of Things (IoT) enabled technology is evolving healthcare
from conventional hub-based systems to more personalized eHealth
systems, enabling faster and safer preventive care, lower overall
cost, improved patient-centric practice and enhanced
sustainability. Efficient IoT-enabled eHealth systems can be
realized by providing highly customized access to rich medical
information and efficient clinical decisions to each individual
with unobtrusive monitoring. Wireless medical sensor networks
(WMSNs) are at the heart of this concept, and their development is
a key issue if such a concept is to achieve its potential. This
book addresses the major challenges in realizing WMSNs in
forthcoming IoT-based eHealth systems. Challenges vary from cost
and energy efficiency to security and service quality, and to
tackle such challenges WMSNs must meet certain expectations and
requirements such as size constraints, manufacturing costs and
resistance to environmental factors existing at deployment
locations. Reflecting this the book focuses on both design and
implementation aspects. Topics covered include the impact of
medical sensor networks in smart-cities; an evaluation of mobile
patient monitoring technologies; overview of wireless sensor
devices in medical applications; cyber security issues in WMSNs and
eHealth; smart hospital rooms and automated systems; medical sensor
capabilities in smart cloud networks; swarm intelligence based
medical diagnosis systems; and smart systems and device for the
blind.
