The data processing is done without human or computer interactions. The technology aims to streamline the patients' health records to deliver high-quality medical service by diagnosing health issues and offering relative treatment to maintain better health. The IoT in healthcare market is highly progressive and is gaining importance owing to the deployment of digital systems for monitoring and analyzing health problems, growing demand for advanced technologies for personalized medical service, and growing demand for solutions that deliver safe and effective healthcare.

The prominent industry players are continuously investing in the product development and expansion of their operational facilities. These players are also capitalizing on future projects to provide better patient health tracking and analyzing solutions. In addition, the government authorities of regions such as Europe are offering high-level cybersecurity for healthcare IT companies involved in IoT-based device development. The government authorities are creating awareness about IoT-based solutions among consumers and healthcare service providers through campaigns, virtual events, and meetings. Moreover, the rising adoption of health monitoring solutions, telemedicine, and remote device management solutions are driving the IoT in healthcare market.

COVID-19 Analysis

The spreading of coronavirus worldwide hampered the business across various sectors, including the healthcare industry. However, the pandemic outbreak created opportunities for IoT healthcare providers due to the rising demand for remote monitoring solutions for diagnosing and treating patients, vaccine cold chain monitoring, and device unit management. Additionally, the IoT in healthcare market is gaining positive results owing to the disruption of fast Internet and network technology. Moreover, the limited mobility during the lockdown period accelerated the usage of online platforms for medical consultation.

IoT-powered telemedicine platforms allowed medical professionals to treat patients remotely.The technology collects data from the patient and transfers the medical information to healthcare providers located in different geography for assessment and recommendations. The emergence of IoT-based smart devices allowed the population to monitor the vitals through device-specific applications. For instance, CMED Health Ltd (Bangladesh) is offering IoT-facilitated health monitoring solutions through mobile applications. The data measured by the individuals are sent to the cloud server and are further accessed and analyzed by authorized doctors. The application provides color-coded results based on the level of emergency. This permitted the CMED's crew to take immediate action in emergencies.

The public and private authorities across different regions introduced IoT-based solutions and services to aid assistance to the people suffering from COVID-19. The launch of an electronic bed management system (eBMS) to check the availability of beds across various hospitals and clinics. The IoT sensors placed on the bed allowed the hospital staff to identify the bed availability that assisted the hospital management in managing the wait time for the beds. Moreover, the IoT healthcare solution providers have integrated IoT sensors on the vaccine cold chain data loggers to get accurate information about the vaccine transit. For instance, the Indian authority UNDP developed an IoT empowered mobile-based technology—electronicVaccine Intelligence Network(eVIN) to keep track of the vaccine cold chain transportation. In addition, the application also delivered information related to the temperature and vaccine stocks. Such factors have strengthened the adoption of IoT technology and are projected to grow rapidly in the assessed period.

IoT in Healthcare Market Dynamics

Drivers

Increasing deployment of healthcare delivery drones

The restricted mobility and urgent deliveries of medical devices and medication during the pandemic augmented the demand for healthcare delivery drones. The drones are deployed as a substitute to the manned transportation facility. The government authorities, in collaboration with technology providers, are working on providing life-saving medical assistance. In addition, the market players are introducing satellite-based IoT-enabled drones to deliver drugs and other medical utilities. For instance, in June 2021, KORE (US) offered IoT-equipped power drones to transport critical medical assets. The drone works on satellite connectivity and eSIM technology, enabling the droneto deliver products in a short time. The integration of such technologies aims to support the deliveryof medical products in a short time. Additionally, the drones aim to deliver COVID vaccines and other healthcare products across remote and rural parts of the world.

IoT in Healthcare Market Restraints

Concerns pertaining to data security

The incorporation of innovative technologies such as IoT brings a lot of challenges along with its deployment. The major concern with IoT deployment is data theft. The hackers upload bugs and malware to get the entire personal and financial detail of the patient. In addition, data centralization is one of the features of the IoT that has allowed cybercriminals to steal confidential data from a single location. Moreover, the hackers are targeting the medical equipment and life support devices, encrypting the entire system that further prevents the functioning of the computerized systems across the hospitals. These hackers demand high ransom to provide the encryption key of the hacked systems. Failure in ransom delivery leads to data distribution or selling of patient's details on the dark web. However, the implementation of zero trust architecture has strengthened the implementation rate in recent years, strengthening the IoT in healthcare market.
