Abstract

Wearable Internet of Things (IoT)–enabled biosensors are attaining endless interest day by day. The biosensors are a device made up of transducer, biosensor reader device, and a biological element. The growing healthcare demand and consciousness in elderly people has become one of the important aspects. Due to huge technology growth, the medical treatments in urban and rural areas have accelerated to greater dimensions. In rural region, the elderly are not treated in time or treated reactively. The sensors are in the form of bandages, tattoos, shirts, etc., which allows continuous monitoring of blood pressure, glucose, and other biometric physiological data. To address this issue a point-of-care monitoring unit is developed in rural areas for healthcare and awareness. To enhance the performance of the system, a smart and intelligent mesh backbone is integrated for fast transmission of the critical medical data to a remote health IoT cloud server. By experimental analysis, it can be inferred that the survival rate of the critical patients is 10% better compared to conventional scheme. In addition, the end-to-end delay in data transmission ...
