Thein Oak Kyaw Zaw, Saravanan Muthaiyah, Ali Jasbi · 2021
Healthcare today is reliant substantially on innovations in Information Communications Technologies (ICT) that include Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Coined as Smart Healthcare, applications for integrated health services has been an integral part of focus for the Smart City initiative globally. Nevertheless, contextualization for a complete definition for Smart Healthcare is still very much obscure. In view of this gap, we conducted a comprehensive examination on the definition of Smart Healthcare via a meta-analysis procedure through systematic review of literatures from: (1) Definitions proposed from literary sources and (2) Smart City frameworks. The goal of this paper is not only to provide a closure for Smart Healthcare but also to provide a unified guideline for developers as well as governments in achieving their Smart Healthcare initiatives.
