Integration of Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) Technologies in Remote Patient Monitoring and Chronic Disease Management in Digital Healthcare Environments

Abstract

The rapid development of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has significantly transformed modern healthcare by enabling remote patient monitoring and improving chronic disease management. This study investigates the impact of IoMT technologies on patient outcomes, healthcare efficiency, and clinical decision-making. A convergent mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative data from 165 healthcare professionals with qualitative insights from case studies and expert interviews. The findings indicate that IoMT technologies enhance real-time patient monitoring, improve disease management, and reduce hospital readmission rates. However, challenges related to data security, device interoperability, and technological infrastructure remain significant barriers. The study provides recommendations for optimizing IoMT integration in healthcare systems.
