How the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) Is Transforming Healthcare waracle.com

Consider this for a minute or two: it’s estimated that there are now over half a billion different types of medical devices available globally. The IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) enables these devices to collect, interpret and disseminate health data via the cloud and it’s predicted that within the next ten years the number of connected medical devices across the world could exceed 50 billion. These devices, combined with rich sensor data, integrated apps, artificial intelligence and predictive analytics, will help to connect healthcare providers, patients and medical records systems across the world. This will have significant ramifications for the entire healthcare ecosystem, both in terms of the quality of healthcare patients receive and reduction of operational costs through IoMT implementation. We recently discovered how emerging technologies are driving a revolution in healthcare and asked the question: what are digital health services and technologies? Today we’re exploring how the IoMT is transforming healthcare.
