Real-Time Remote Patient Monitoring: A Review of Biosensors Integrated with Multi-Hop IoT Systems via Cloud Connectivity

Abstract

This comprehensive review paper explores the intricate integration of biosensors with multi-hop Internet of Things (IoT) systems, representing a paradigm shift in healthcare through real-time remote patient monitoring. The strategic deployment of biosensors in different locations in medical facilities, intricately connected to multiple microcontrollers, serves as a cornerstone in the establishment of robust multi-hop IoT networks. This paper highlights the role of this multi-hop IoT network, which efficiently facilitates the seamless transmission of vital health data to a centralized server. Crucially, the utilization of cloud connectivity emerges as a linchpin in this integration, providing a secure and scalable platform for remote patient monitoring. This cloud-based approach not only improves the accessibility of critical health information but also transcends physical limitations, allowing healthcare providers to monitor patients in real-time from any location. This paper highlights the transformative potential of this integration in overcoming traditional healthcare limitations through real-time remote patient monitoring.
