Integration of IoT and Cloud Computing to Manage the Patient E- Prescription

Abstract: Data management is crucial to the functioning of healthcare systems and affects how well software programmes operate. The most recent equipment offers facilities that current healthcare systems do not use to allow their stakeholders to communicate with the system. The existing systems do not allow for as much freedom for chemists to collaborate as they should. Apart from this, we propose a system based on android and a web application by which a doctor has the ability to prescribe patients through an android application using stylus pen and other users such as patients, receptionists, pharmacists and admins interact with the system via their web accessibility. The suggested solution is based on combining cloud computing and Internet of Things technologies with the system. The Cloud IoT technology often finds application in remote healthcare monitoring and dispenses feasible solutions to patients with severe heath conditions and disabilities. Employing remote monitoring through Cloud and IoT aids in proactive and prior detection of diseases and as such, suitable healthcare solutions could be provided to ensure patient convenience and comfort.
