Abstract

The healthcare system that depends on the Internet of Things (IoT) assists individuals and aids their vital everyday life activities. The affordability and user-friendliness of the usage of IoT start revolutionizing healthcare services. The IoT and its related technologies have emerged as the most preferred use cases in the healthcare system. Hence, the security and privacy issues associated with smart healthcare systems and their participated entities make its general acceptance still a dream. Also, as a remote patient monitoring system using IoT-based devices are the increase in privacy, popularity, accessibility, security concerns of logging and the transfer of medical data continue arising. Therefore, this chapter proposes IoT-based blockchain-protected medical data utilizing a smart contract for secure analysis and management of wearable sensors based on the Ethereum protocol. The integration of blockchain will counter the security and privacy issues that may arise using IoT-based wearable devices in the healthcare monitoring system, thus facilitating safe and secure storage of patients’ information in the utilization of IoT devices in the healthcare system. IoT-based healthcare can be employed to enhance the well-being of patients, make the healthcare system more effective, and help respond quickly to emergencies.
