Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Technology Adoption
  • Systematic Review

Background:

  • Internet of Things (IoT) adoption in healthcare services faces significant challenges from healthcare professionals, despite its potential benefits.
  • Existing research offers insights, but a systematic review of factors influencing IoT adoption by medical professionals is needed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review and synthesize existing knowledge on factors influencing the adoption of IoT applications by medical professionals in the healthcare sector.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic literature search was conducted across nine major scientific databases from 2015 to 2021, using both automatic and manual methods.
  • 22 relevant articles were selected based on predefined inclusion criteria for analysis.

Main Results:

  • The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA), and Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) were commonly used adoption theories.
  • Key adoption factors identified include: individual (social influence, attitude, personal inattentiveness), technology (perceived usefulness, ease of use, performance expectancy, effort expectations), security (perceived privacy risk), health (perceived severity, health risk), and environmental (financial cost, facilitating conditions).
  • Studies involved physicians, patients, and health workers, examining diverse IoT applications like wearable devices, telehealth, and smart home technologies.

Conclusions:

  • This systematic review provides a comprehensive understanding of the critical factors influencing IoT adoption in healthcare, highlighting barriers and opportunities for providers.
  • The findings are crucial for developing strategies to enhance the implementation and utilization of IoT in healthcare settings.
  • The study also considered the potential impact of COVID-19 on IoT adoption within the healthcare domain.
