Healthcare
A survey conducted by HIMSS Analytics found that 74% of healthcare organizations have at least one IoT device deployed, and 86% are planning to implement IoT technologies in the near future.
While many industries are entering the throes of digital transformation and embracing the Internet of Things, many commercial IoT applications simply improve operations or cultivate a competitive advantage.
IoT in healthcare is particularly exciting because of its singular potential to improve the health, safety, and quality of life for people everywhere.
There are several applications for IoT in healthcare. Some of them include:
Clinical Trials
The integration of IoT in clinical trials offers valuable benefits such as real-time data collection, remote monitoring, improved data accuracy, patient engagement, cost-effectiveness, and time efficiency. This can ultimately lead to more efficient and successful clinical trials.
Remote Patient Monitoring
IoT devices can collect and transmit real-time patient data even outside of healthcare facilities. This enables healthcare providers to monitor and manage patients remotely, allowing for earlier interventions and reducing hospital readmissions.
Improved Efficiency
IoT devices can automate various healthcare processes, such as inventory management, asset tracking, and preventive maintenance. This automation enhances operational efficiency and reduces costs.
Enhanced Patient Safety
IoT devices can be used to track and monitor patient vital signs, medication adherence, and environmental conditions in healthcare facilities. This technology helps prevent medical errors, improve patient outcomes, and reduce adverse events.
Predictive Analytics
IoT devices generate vast amounts of data that can be analyzed to gain insights into population health trends, disease surveillance, and early warnings of potential outbreaks. This information can facilitate more proactive and personalized healthcare interventions.
Telemedicine & Telehealth
IoT enables virtual consultations and remote healthcare services by connecting patients, doctors, and medical devices. This improves access to healthcare, especially for patients in rural or underserved areas.
Smart Wearables
IoT-powered wearable devices, such as fitness trackers or smartwatches, can collect real-time health data, encourage healthy behaviors, and enable early detection of health issues. This promotes preventive care and empowers individuals to take control of their health.
Efficient Resource Management
IoT devices can optimize energy consumption in healthcare facilities, monitor equipment utilization, and optimize workflow management. This leads to cost savings and increased sustainability.
How SKYDATA-IoT Can Help You
For any IoT project to succeed, there needs to be the right mix of technology and strategy. Your cellular data partner plays a critical role in the technology ecosystem and must meet these 5 critical requirements for success:
Connectivity
Implementing a reliable and secure connectivity infrastructure is crucial. This involves utilizing a mix of wireless and wired networks to ensure seamless communication between devices and systems.
Security
Prioritize cybersecurity measures to protect sensitive data and critical infrastructure. Use encryption, authentication, and other security technologies to secure IoT devices, networks, and data from potential threats.
Back-End Integration
Having APIs for integration to allow for automation of back-end workflows, enabling better coordination and operational efficiency.
Scalability & Flexibility
Design IoT solutions that are scalable and flexible to accommodate future growth and changing needs. This allows for easier upgrades and additions as new technologies and requirements emerge.
Cost
One size does not fit all. Customization based on the nature of business and deployment is essential to cost efficiency.

APN stands for Access Point Name. APN is used by mobile service providers to combines many SIM cards into a single limited networks. It is recommended to have a private APN for security critical applications.
VPN stands for Virtual Private Network. VPN provides even further extension of the security for your application by removing the access to your M2M/IoT devices from the public internet. It is recommended to have VPN installed on the network of M2M/IoT devices when there are security concerns and especially if there is a large fleet of devices in the field controlled from a single location.
Static IP is used as part of the Virtual Private Network - VPN. Static IP allows you to contact the device directly and securely without ever touching the public internet. This is the top security measure that offers the maximum flexibility in managing remote devices
The OneSim IMEI Lock service adds a layer of security and assures that a SIM card can only be used in the IoT device to which it is assigned.
