Description: Blockchain emerging for healthcare provides a secure, decentralized and patient driven record management system. However, the storage of data generated from IoT devices in remote patient management applications requires a fast consensus mechanism. In this paper, we propose a lightweight consensus mechanism and a decentralized patient software agent to control a remote patient monitoring (RPM) system. The decentralized RPM architecture includes devices at three levels; 1) Body Area Sensor Network-medical sensors typically on or in patient's body transmitting data to a Smartphone, 2) Fog/Edge, and 3) Cloud. We propose that a Patient Agent(PA) software replicated on the Smartphone, Fog and Cloud servers processes medical data to ensure reliable, secure and private communication. Performance analysis has been conducted to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed Blockchain leveraged, distributed Patient Agent controlled remote patient monitoring system. © 2019 IEEE.

Description: IoT has been transforming the world of information significantly. It has allowed administration services without human interventions for a range of applications including healthcare with Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM). Blockchain is broadly utilized in IoT applications like smart health monitoring that provides privacy and security. Blockchain innovation presents freedom for the medical services industry, for example, reduced transaction costs, transparency for reporting regulatory entities, productive medical care information, privacy, confidentiality and universality of healthcare records. This chapter deals with the collaboration of blockchain innovation in IoT security in terms of the RPM framework. A Patient Centric Agent is used for end-to-end design for nonstop tolerant checking. The patient agent deals with a segment of blockchain to provide protection when streaming information from body area sensors that need to be securely stored and critical parts of blockchain to a wellbeing application network where patient's information can be utilized to make alarms that are essential to validate medical services suppliers in a protected way. This methodology is valuable as they assemble information for longer time frames. The access control manager stores and safely accesses information needed by the classifier during retraining progressively in realtime from an external data storage. © 2022, Bentham Books imprint.
