Abstract

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is significantly altering the healthcare industry by merging smart devices and sensors to enhance medical monitoring, diagnosis, and treatment. This paper delves into the challenges and advancements in creating embedded systems for IoMT applications. Key obstacles include the need for effective real-time data processing, power efficiency, and compatibility across various devices and platforms. Advances in sensor technology, wireless communication protocols, and edge computing have markedly improved IoMT functionalities, enabling remote patient monitoring, personalized healthcare solutions, and enhanced health outcomes. However, issues related to security and privacy is crucial, requiring strong encryption, authentication methods, and adherence to regulatory standards. This review consolidates existing research and outlines future trends to guide the development of secure, efficient, and scalable embedded systems in the IoMT ecosystem.
