What is Spirometer

Globally, healthcare professionals strive to diagnose, monitor, and save human lives. An application that advances the medical field to the next level is the need of the hour. Smart healthcare systems using IoT help in the process of monitoring human health by minimizing human intervention. Taking care and monitoring of human health has a significant contribution in declining the mortality rate as well. IoT in healthcare has aided smarter communications and prompt treatment to save lives. Patient data are sensed by sensors/microcontrollers, sent over the internet, stored in the cloud, and received by healthcare professionals during emergencies. Applications of such smart healthcare using IoT are blood glucose meters, medical vehicles, sphygmomanometer, pulse oximeter, Holter monitor, etc. This chapter elucidates several smart healthcare IoT applications using artificial intelligence and cloud computing technology. The chapter also elaborates the importance and functions of various cloud and AI components in designing a smart healthcare application.
