Smart Ventilators in Intensive Care: IoT-Connected Respiratory Support

Intensive Care Units provide critically ill patients, and technology has improved patient care. This paper examines Internet of Things (IoT) integration into smart ventilators, a key ICU component. IoT-connected smart ventilators provide real-time data monitoring, remote control, and data-driven decision assistance. The study highlights IoT-enhanced smart ventilators' potential to continually gather and send patient data to healthcare practitioners, allowing fast treatments and lowering problems. These devices also enable IoT-based ventilation optimization techniques for a more personalized and effective respiratory support system. It discusses ICU IoT-connected smart ventilator adoption issues. These obstacles include data security, privacy, interoperability, and extensive regulatory frameworks. These challenges must be overcome to integrate IoT technology into respiratory support systems. It highlights the advantages of IoT-enhanced smart ventilators in critical care via case studies and practical implementations. These advantages include enhanced patient comfort, lower healthcare expenses, and minimizing healthcare personnel's stress by automating routine procedures and enabling remote monitoring and changes. As the healthcare sector adopts IoT technology, users must work together to overcome its obstacles and use its potential to improve patient outcomes and intense care.
