Abstract
This chapter aims to explore the synergistic potential of the internet of medical things (IoMT) and blockchain technology within the context of secure electronic health records (EHR). IoMT is revolutionizing healthcare by enabling real-time patient monitoring and data collection. However, concerns over data security are paramount. Blockchain, known for its robust data security capabilities, holds the promise of addressing these concerns. This chapter will discuss the IoMT's significance, applications, and challenges, while delving into the crucial role of blockchain in securing patient data. The chapter will also offer insights into the potential benefits, emerging trends, and ethical considerations in the IoMT and blockchain healthcare landscape.
