Abstract
Abstract— The Internet of Things (IoT) has an extensive range of applications, namely in the healthcare field. Its renovation is reforming the existing healthcare, with stimulating economic, technological, and social consequences. The augmentation of the cardiac patients' numbers with restricted totals of caregivers, which is a challenge as each caregiver ought to be careful of several patients, thereby representing a stress for caregivers and undergoing for the patients. Therefore, this study examines the state-of-the-art (network architectures/platforms, functions, and industry movements) in IoT-based healthcare fixes, and the developments in IoT-based healthcare knowledge, especially related to the cardiac surgery (CS). Additionally, we analyzed how IoT-based up-to-date advances could influence on the surgery patients in general and particularly CS-patients. Further, this paper examines how various advances, such as robotic surgery, ambient intelligence, and wearables, for CSpatients, and benefit from this demonstration to improve a function/architecture, which can monitor the condition of openheart CS.
