| Summary: | Abstract This article explores the Internet of Things (IoT), an innovative technical advancement that utilizes the capabilities of billions of sensors across various applications. Sensors are critical to the IoT environment as they collect crucial data for complex analysis. The emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) and its accompanying sensor technology has significant implications for various fields, including smart urban planning, advanced agriculture, online education, and healthcare. The Internet of Things (IoT) has played a crucial role in tackling worldwide health challenges, notably in the healthcare sector, with a particular emphasis on the recent COVID-19 pandemic. The epidemic has heightened the need for digital and home-based healthcare solutions. The Internet of Things (IoT) enhances healthcare services by providing precise patient monitoring over a unified digital network. This article examines the various uses, technical intricacies, and difficulties that exist in the healthcare field. A thorough investigation was conducted using reputable databases such as Google Scholar, Elsevier, PubMed, ACM, ResearchGate, Scopus, and Springer. Relevant keywords directed the search. The narrative highlights and emphasizes the significant impact of IoT on healthcare, explicitly identifying prospective research areas for doctors, scholars, and researchers to overcome obstacles in the field. As anticipated, the Internet of Things (IoT) serves as a guiding light for improved healthcare delivery. The Survey demonstrates that combining IoT with cutting-edge technology enhances computing capacities, emphasizing IoT’s widespread, advantageous, and extensive nature. To summarise, this discussion examines future difficulties and provides valuable solutions to strengthen the healthcare infrastructure led by the Internet of Things (IoT) during the COVID-19 crisis and future health catastrophes. |
