Abstract

People around the world are at risk from chronic diseases like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. When it comes to sudden cardiac arrest, many people have recently become increasingly concerned. The main cause of death in the world is heart disease. Because it needs both experience and advanced knowledge, predicting heart disease is a difficult assignment. Sensor values are being collected for heart disease detection and prediction using internet of things (IoT), which has recently been implemented in healthcare systems. In order to achieve a continuous remote cardiac monitoring system, IoT and wireless technology have advanced significantly over the past several years. The use of various sensors, such as electrocardiograms (ECGs), thermometers, and blood pressure monitors to collect important body signals and diagnose illnesses has resulted in the creation of a wireless body area network. The diagnosis of cardiac disease findings is low in accuracy. The goal is to highlight IoT-driven technologies that have been used in the literature for diagnosing and forecasting heart disease.

Background

A person's quality of life is severely affected if they have cardiac difficulties. The broad deployment of cutting-edge technology can enhance healthcare systems. The invention of a smart wearable IoT health monitoring device is revolutionizing our lives (ITU-T, 2012). Medical services have made great development in recent years. Technology advancements will allow for a larger choice of services to be provided to patients. As a result of this progress, the quality of life of a substantial segment of the people will increase. Wearable IoT devices allow patients to monitor and regulate their health parameters more effectively. Patients may be alerted about their status at any moment, which is a benefit of these gadgets. To save a patient's life or treat a patient's condition in an emergency, medical professionals can utilize this information. One of the most promising uses of new technology is in the field of connected health. Connected healthcare systems and smart embedded IoT devices may help both businesses and individuals. As a result of this research, it is hoped that linked health systems may be developed that can better inform patients on the state of their health and offer them early medical warnings. It is the goal of the Internet of Things (IoT) to link anything and everyone, everywhere, at any time, via any method, network, or service (O. Vermesan and P. Friess, 2013; R. Clarke, 2013). This objective necessitates further work in a variety of areas, including communication and software. Many research and development organizations are involved in the process. In other terms, the Internet of Everything (IoE) is a network of computers and gadgets of all shapes and sizes that communicate and share information in networks of connections, as defined by Cisco (D. Evans, n.d.).
