Extraordinary
Use Cases of
the IoT in
Healthcare

2. The first thing to note about the IoT
Market for Healthcare:
It started off small, and it is expanding rapidly.

3. It started off small, and it is expanding rapidly.
But when we say expanding, we mean more than just the
SIZE of the market. We’re talking about the infinite
possibilities, use cases, and opportunities that this
interconnectivity can bring.
The first thing to note about the IoT
Market for Healthcare:

4. In fact, the total market is expected to hit
$117 Billion in 2020!
That’s $15 per person globally.

5. Let’s put this in perspective:
What does that mean
for me?

6. The IoT can bring you some really exciting new
benefits.

Here are 6
extraordinary use
cases of the IoT in
healthcare today:

7. 1. You can wirelessly monitor your sleep.

8. 1. You can wirelessly monitor your sleep.
People want more comfortable, less invasive
procedures. Patients can now have their sleep patterns
analyzed with sensors placed in the mattress. The data
is then transmitted from the mattress to an online app.

9. 2. We can constantly monitor an elderly patient in
their own home.
Doctors can now constantly take clinical measurements like blood
pressure and glucose, track any type of motion, remotely monitor
medication doses, remind patients to actually take their meds if they
forget, or even track noise patterns to identify emergencies.

10. 2. We can constantly monitor an elderly patient in
their own home.
If something seems wrong, caregivers or doctors will be notified immediately.

11. 3. You can video chat your doctor… through a
robot.
We’ve all heard of
Skyping a doctor
(even if we haven’t
actually done it
ourselves).

12. 3. You can video chat your doctor… through a
robot.
Doctors will be able to
transmit live video
through a robot. This
makes for a much more
interactive experience
and gives the doctor
more control during
consultations.

13. 4. The emergency room of the future has arrived.
Doctors have the ability to
track every key action,
condition and outcome,
including patient survey
responses. Armed with this
information, hospitals can
identify bottlenecks and
ways to move people and
equipment more efficiently.

14. 4. The emergency room of the future has arrived.
The resulting data and
recommendations can help
hospitals build a better
facility that gives doctors
and nurses more time to
help patients, ultimately
improving patient
experiences.

15. 5. Heart-monitoring systems lower the danger of
high risk pregnancies.

16. 5. Heart-monitoring systems lower the danger of
high risk pregnancies.
Expectant mothers can have a new
source of comfort! To combat high-risk
pregnancies, there are now portable,
remote fetal and maternal heart rate
monitoring systems that provide
doctors with a cloud-based portal to
enable around-the-clock care.

17. 6. Finally, it helps you stay in shape!

18. 6. Finally, it helps you stay in shape!
With the boom of Fitbit and other
connected fitness devices, you can
make sure that you burn off enough
calories for the day. You can even
create your own leaderboard and
compete with friends to see how
many steps they’re taking.
