<![CDATA[Since 2022, the application of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the healthcare sector has grown significantly, marked by the increasing adoption of wearable technology, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and blockchain integration. Research highlights India and China as leading contributors in this domain. IoT enables real-time monitoring of chronic diseases, tracking of patient vital signs, and detection of health protocol compliance. Integrated systems such as Monit4Healthy and RADAR-IoT support personalized medical recommendations and cross-platform interoperability. However, key challenges persist, including patient data privacy and security, system interoperability issues, data fragmentation, and barriers to user acceptance due to cost, digital literacy, and device comfort. Proposed solutions include blockchain for secure data sharing, adaptive congestion control for network performance, and user training to improve technology adoption. Therefore, successful IoT deployment in healthcare requires a comprehensive approach that addresses technological, social, ethical, and sustainability aspects to achieve an effective and inclusive transformation of health services.]]>
