“…Controlling or reducing blood pressure can aid in the prevention or postponement of significant health issues such as renal disease, cardiac arrest, cardiovascular disease, brain hemorrhage, and perhaps Alzheimer's disease. Among all the signals acquired by the detectors, the blood pressure signal provides critical information on heart rate, blood vessel flexibility, and biological variation [11]. Narasimhan et al [12] developed a finger wearable blood pressure measuring system that contains a 30-element capacitive tactile sensor array for measuring contact stress with the thumb, a pump-driven pneumatic bladder for steadily pressing the tactile array and the finger towards one another, and a wristband that encloses the sensing system and bladder.…”

Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the greatest advancements in technology especially in the medical field. The interconnection of medical devices with the internet makes it easier to identify problems and adapts with patient conditions. The sophisticated devices may either be worn or implanted in the users’ bodies to continually examine their wellbeing. But due to the availability of several sensors and communication systems, standardization has become a key issue. This survey paper presents the state-of-art research relating to the various sensors and communication models that are used to provide home based monitoring. The small sensor nodes with IoT and its influence on every patient’s life in reducing their anxiety of risk when they are inaccessible to medical support are studied. This study helps the researchers in choosing the best available protocols to implement in health-care devices. The contribution to the development of smart cities and data from home or at work for smart health care is discussed. The key findings of this study are the benefits of 5G technology for smart health care, as the most often utilized communication method in the literature to date is 4G. Also, the challenges faced in implementing the models in real time are discussed with the options of future scope mentioned.
