Abstract

Advanced IoT technologies improve accuracy, monitoring, and patient outcomes, revolutionizing surgical operations. Additionally, advanced IoT is used to create an automated surgical monitoring system. A medical professional data entry and access system decreases mistakes and paperwork time, improving clinical results and care. Similarly, connected surgical tools use sensors, real-time data analytics, and AI to increase precision and eliminate mistakes. Therefore, this paper explores the AI-guided controls, remote monitoring, and improved biosensors that allow surgeons to conduct difficult surgeries with remarkable accuracy. Despite cybersecurity threats, high implementation costs, and technical training needs, IoT-enabled surgical technology may alter healthcare delivery. Additionally, the paper discusses how these technologies enable real-time data transfer, collaborative surgical treatments, and predictive analytics to optimize surgical operations and reduce complications and potential benefits, challenges, and future directions for smart surgical instruments in healthcare.
