Remote Monitoring Medical Cyber Physical Systems (MCPS) for Intelligent Healthcare Services

Abstract

Significant development in recent years in the field of medicine and technology has to lead to a significant increase in the mortality rate, which has put stress on prevailing Health Care mechanisms like hospitals, clinics etc. and this originated in the need for smart healthcare systems and services. Remote monitoring of patients at their residence is one of the most efficient ways to handle this situation. Medical Cyber Physical System is an integration of internet of things (IoT), Cloud computing, Data Analysis along with Patient’s physiological conditions. The user data is generated digitally stored electron-ically and can remotely be accessed by the medical staff. Based on several important variables, including development effi-ciency, performance, user satisfaction, community support, and integration potential, a thorough study is carried out. Vari-ous merits and demerits have been considered while analyzing the potential of the MCPS mechanisms for future use. Vari-ous issues like user data collection, data storage (Big Data problem), data velocity and user privacy are analyzed while con-ducting the research. This work will provide a view of MCPS architecture from different angles. The study gives a compre-hensive understanding of important characteristics and technical routes of MCPS. It also compares various MCPS.
