This chapter discusses the core concepts of IoMT, its integration with cloud and edge computing, and the support it provides to improve the accessibility of healthcare delivery. The history of IoMT, such as the telemedicine system up to advanced devices including wearable sensors and implantable biosensors, is also reviewed along with the progress of technologies and the usefulness of continuous patient monitoring and remote diagnostics. Here a proposed architect has been presented on the IoMT health monitoring system that integrates various biomedical sensors, including wearable and implantable devices, with cloud-enabled platforms to provide seamless communication, data processing, and storage. Important challenges, such as interoperability, data security and privacy, are also discussed. IoMT systems and how they interact with robotics in applications ranging from robotic surgery to remote patient monitoring to provide marked advancements in clinical decision support, resource utilization, and patient care have been discussed.
