Abstract

Recent advances in Internet of medical Things (IoMT) have been applied in various healthcare organizations as it is cost-effective and profitable. Apart from this, it provides high customer satisfaction and meets all their needs. Several of limitations in the medical field involve negligence of medical staff, inability to monitor patients, loss of lives due to incapability to reach patients at the right time. However with the introduction of IoMT, it is possible to remove these limitations and facilitate humans with such facilities, which will not only lead to a new revolution for mankind, but also change the face of existing facilities. This chapter proposed an innovative approach to check for fluid flow rate of drops in patient’s body and also find the accurate critical level drop for a saline bag and send immediate alarm to the nurse with the help of IoMT. The proposed method is cost-effective and needs less human effort in hospitals which will lead to a new revolution in the field of medical science.
