Description

Strategic Intelligence: The Internet of Things in Healthcare (2025)

Summary

The Internet of Things (IoT) describes the use of connected sensors and actuators to control and monitor the environment, the things that move within it, and the people that act within it. In healthcare, IoT devices are vital for remote patient monitoring (RPM) and decentralized clinical trials (DCTs). They also significantly contribute to predictive maintenance in supply chains and manufacturing.

Scope
  • IoT is transforming how diseases are monitored and managed.
  • Wearable devices can reduce the burden of clinical trials on patients.
  • IoT can strengthen supply chain reliability.
Reasons to Buy
  • Understand how IoT can impact the healthcare industry.
  • Learn which aspects of IoT can improve healthcare quality and access.
  • Understand how IoT can benefit the healthcare supply chain.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
