Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) are wireless sensor networks that monitor the physiological and contextual data of the human body. Nodes in a WBAN communicate using short-range and low-power transmissions to minimize any impact on the human ...

This study takes into account the pre and post experiences of the healthcare consumer in a developing country context regarding the use of digital technologies in receiving healthcare services. The study proposes a conceptual framework which ...

The various applications of the Internet of Things (IoT), one of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), is used in medical healthcare and medical monitoring techniques such as healthcare. It examines medical reports (EMR), online cases, primary-level ...

One of the most important, from the privacy point of view, interactions of patients with the healthcare system is giving access to medical information. This paper presents a proof-of-concept for a system that allows selectively sharing medical ...

The Design Science Research Methodology (DSRM) is commonly used in developing and innovating information systems, particularly in creating artifacts such as mobile apps for education and healthcare. This study aimed to apply DSRM to create ...

Speech impairments can be extremely debilitating for individuals in many areas of their lives. Speech therapy is a field that aims to solve these disorders by taking into account multiple factors and following patients over an extended period of ...
