Abstract
The IOMT and big data are newer technologies that can provide extensive support for healthcare systems, helping them overcome shortcomings. Health is a common objective pursued by all human beings and people's health is the primary responsibility in medical systems. As medical techniques and philosophy advance, systems require technologies to develop new ways to prevent and treat diseases and improve resilience to public health crises. Technology advancement drives the growth of Internet of Things (IoT) applications in many fields, including healthcare. IoT in healthcare is called the Internet of Medical Things (IOMT), an emerging subset of IoT referring to medical devices and applications with internet connectivity. IOMT has revolutionized healthcare services by providing significant benefits in patient well-being and costs. IOMT devices transmit health or technical data to cloud or internal servers to monitor patient health parameters and help prevent, diagnosing or treat diseases. IOMT expedites remote health biomedical systems and enhances precision, reliability, consistency and productivity of electronic devices used for healthcare purposes.
