**Abstract**

The Internet of Things (IoT) is currently rapidly being incorporated into many fields, but there are still some fields, such as healthcare, where IoT adoption is much slower. Medical IoT refers to a range of medical devices and people that rely on wireless communication to enable healthcare data exchange, remote monitoring, and patient rehabilitation for a better quality of life for the patient. Medical IoT can provide better medical care and rehabilitation services under the careful supervision of the physician, resulting in more cost-effective systems for hospitals as well as for the patient. Due to the regulatory, ethical, and technological challenges of biomedical hardware, the growth of medical IoT is still inhibited. The chapter provides an overview of the various technologies and protocols used for the Internet of Medical Things (IoT), with an overview of the current technologies, applications, and challenges.
