Abstract

Since its launch, Healthcare 4.0 has made it possible to create and enhance the quality of healthcare services by integrating cutting-edge technologies. We have focused this study on a few of the cutting-edge studies that have the potential to significantly impact advancing healthcare 4.0 systems in the future. We have identified the critical research gaps and introduced the Healthcare IoT Application and Service Stacks, representing the state-of-the-art in contemporary healthcare systems. Additionally, we discussed the most recent paradigm for wireless body area networks and focused on the importance and how advanced technology helps next-generation health applications, such as big data analytics, software-defined networking, blockchain, cloud computing, edge/fog computing, telehealthcare, edge/fog computing, and machine learning. We have conducted a comparative analysis of several architectural implementations, considering their benefits, drawbacks, and needs for quality of service. We greatly emphasize the significance of the various developing technologies, outlining the prospects they present and their ability to improve healthcare solutions and deliver higher-quality services. The primary objective of this chapter is to focus on the fundamentals of establishing security and privacy in the future healthcare system.
