Abstract
The rapid development of advanced technologies has affected the healthcare industry regarding healthcare services delivery and the use of equipment for healthcare treatments. In China, due to the high coverage of mobile broadband and the high penetration rate of internet users, mobile healthcare solutions are a promising solution for the government to promote home-based healthcare services and improve the overall quality of healthcare services. Thus, in this chapter, an Internet of Things (IoT)-based healthcare model is proposed for (i) collecting vital sign data for health monitoring and remote diagnosis by health professionals and (ii) promoting self-management by patients through the integration of mobile health mini program.
