IoT in healthcare combines sensing and positioning technologies, wireless communication, data and security services, and the cloud to improve preventative healthcare as well as the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of health conditions.
Ubiquitous connectivity and the internet have enabled a new generation of connected healthcare devices that monitor vital parameters and schedule or control the administration of medication. IoT-based healthcare solutions have been shown to improve the efficiency and quality of therapies achieving considerable cost savings.
Wearable health devices provide improved insights into personal fitness and wellbeing, potentially coupled with health insurance premium reductions that reward a healthy lifestyle. Smart watches and activity trackers promote healthy habits at home and at work, reducing the risk of injury or illness.
Teleconsultations, smartphone applications, and the internet offer easier access to medical care and healthcare-related information, removing barriers and increasing the capacity of the medical system.
Mobile sensors, wireless communication, and cloud-based platforms are enabling a new generation of health and medical devices capable of accurately sensing physiological parameters and diagnosing disease, leading to faster, more effective personalized treatment.
Drawing on anonymously aggregated health data collected using connected healthcare and medical devices, cloud-based healthcare applications can be used to derive new health-related insights. At the same time, health data repositories provide an exchange platform to streamline collaboration between medical workers and accelerate research.
By enabling health monitoring outside the clinic, home health monitoring devices help support patients suffering from chronic conditions such as diabetes, sleep apnea, and hypertension. At the same time, user-friendly assisted living technology increase patient autonomy and promote faster re-integration into society.
Because of its impact on human wellbeing, the healthcare market is particularly risk averse and typically slow to adopt new technologies.
u-blox has proven its strengths and capabilities in this challenging market with health and fitness related wearables and medical devices, as well in clinical devices.
