Internet of Medical Things

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has sparked a revolution in the healthcare industry. It is used to monitor a facility's healthcare technology and provide performance alerts when a failure occurs. IoMT applications can be used to locate staff, patients, equipment and other resources in critical environments. It is poised to become an integral part of healthcare infrastructure as major companies like Microsoft offer enterprise-grade IoT packages.

The following image shows the healthcare and medical revolution in hospitals as a practice. The image shows a patient with diabetes who has a ID card that, when scanned, connects to a secure cloud where their electronic health records, lab results, medical records and prescriptions are stored. The storage allows doctors and nurses to easily access this data through a tablet or computer.
