The ever-evolving and contagious nature of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) has immobilized the world around us. As the daily number of infected cases increases, the containment of the spread of this virus is proving to be an overwhelming task. Healthcare facilities around the world are overburdened with an ominous responsibility to combat an ever-worsening scenario. To aid the healthcare system, Internet of Things (IoT) technology provides a better solution-tracing, testing of COVID patients efficiently is gaining rapid pace. This study discusses the role of IoT technology in healthcare during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemics. The study overviews different research, platforms, services, products where IoT is used to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. Further, we intelligently integrate IoT and healthcare for COVID-19 related applications. Again, we focus on a wide range of IoT applications in regards to SARS-CoV-2 tracing, testing, and treatment. Finally, we effectively consider further challenges, issues, and some direction regarding IoT in order to uplift the healthcare system during COVID-19 and future pandemics.
冠状病毒(COVID-19)不断演变且具有传染性的特性使我们周围的世界陷入停滞。随着每日感染病例数量的增加,事实证明,遏制这种病毒的传播是一项艰巨的任务。世界各地的医疗保健机构肩负着应对日益恶化局面的不祥责任,不堪重负。为了帮助医疗系统,物联网(IoT)技术提供了一个更好的解决方案——高效追踪、检测新冠患者的工作正在迅速推进。本研究探讨了物联网技术在严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)大流行期间在医疗保健中的作用。该研究概述了不同的研究、平台、服务、产品,其中物联网被用于抗击COVID-19大流行。此外,我们将物联网与医疗保健进行智能整合,以用于与COVID-19相关的应用。同样,我们关注物联网在SARS-CoV-2追踪、检测和治疗方面的广泛应用。最后,我们切实考虑了物联网面临的进一步挑战、问题以及一些发展方向,以便在COVID-19及未来大流行期间提升医疗系统。
