Abstract

When a healthcare system employs the World Wide Web and other connected connections, it is called ‘e-health.’ This article deals with the use of intelligent health approaches and their growth through time, in particular the connection of IoT devices with cloud applications. E-Health is described as ‘the possibility of seeking, identifying, understanding and evaluating the information on health from internet databases and information gained to correctly solve health issues or address them. The web can safeguard consumers from damage and enhancement as a storehouse for health and e-health analyses to fully take part in an educated decision linked to health. Above all, the high level of e-Health connectivity mitigates the risk of inaccurate Internet information. Different views on IoT-cloud-based e-health systems linked to confidentiality and protection are explored with a concentrate on the potential, advantages, and challenges of implementing those systems. A bright alternative trend is the integration of the integrating IoT-based e-health systems with artificial intelligence like cloud technology that gives intelligent goals and implementations.
