Abstract

With an increasing demand of the world to catch up on newer and advanced technology options rapidly, the power of Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) combined with data science and biomedical informatics has become the need of the hour. From cutting down on unnecessary supply costs to bridging the gap between the caregiver and the patient, there is a plethora of options to explore currently. The world is heading toward a data-driven era, and hence, mining for these crucial biomedical data has become a thing of utmost importance. Using wearable technologies which can provide the caregiver with the information necessary to conduct a tailored diagnosis has become increasingly necessary, thus allowing the caregiver to stay updated with the health status of the patient. In this chapter, we are mainly focused toward exploring two different case studies: a) an integrated telemedicine platform in wake of the COVID-19 crisis and b) a smart sleep detection system to track the sleeping pattern in patients suffering from sleep ...
