摘要

Remote service delivery and automation using Blockchain and Internet of Things (IoT) are revolutionising healthcare operations. Enhancing healthcare data interchange and providing real-time treatment is becoming more difficult due to the exponential growth of patient populations around the globe. It is still very difficult to develop a digital healthcare platform that is entirely decentralised, secure, trustworthy, interoperable, and scalable, even if existing studies have improved these platforms to improve patient outcomes and reduce hospital visits. This paper proposes a robust and scalable healthcare architecture using Blockchain smart contracts and IoT, with the integration of the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS). By securely storing sensitive medical records, the framework enhances data privacy and interoperability for patients as well as healthcare professionals. A device proxy monitors potentially vulnerable IoT devices and uses cryptography to ensure that data remains private. Experimental evaluations of the system’s performance have focused on key factors, including healthcare record upload, download, access, and mining times. The results show that public healthcare systems based on the Blockchain considerably boost efficiency and performance by integrating IPFS.
