5 Considerations for Managing Data in the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) Era
From Alexa speakers to Apple watches, robotic or ‘smart’ devices connected to the Internet of Things (IoT) are now ubiquitous among consumers. The healthcare market is no exception. The global Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) market is expected to reach over $187 billion by 2028, more than four times its worth in 2020—owing in part to improving technology and the rise in remote care during the COVID-19 pandemic. Examples of IoMT include ingestible cameras and MRI machines used in medical facilities, as well as smart thermometers and connected glucose monitors available to patients at home.The value of IoMT offerings comes from the vast amount of data they capture, which can keep patients informed and give clinicians faster access to critical information. The benefits are evident in improved patient outcomes, reduced wait times, and lower healthcare costs.

The data generated by IoMT care has the greatest impact when patients are engaged alongside their providers. It is beneficial to inform patients of how smart devices are being used in their care and provide an easy-to-understand snapshot of the data being generated to show how it will be used to guide treatment. This education makes patients more likely to use the device correctly and consistently, leading to more accurate data and, therefore, better outcomes.There continue to be exciting innovations in IoMT care, enhancing the way clinicians and patients themselves monitor and manage health conditions. With the right support for innovation and robust data management strategies, IoMT technology is set to continue its transformative impact on healthcare delivery, ensuring that patient care is both advanced and accessible.
