Phonendo: a platform for publishing wearable data on distributed ledger technologies

Abstract Nowadays, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, especially wearable are commonly integrated into modern intelligent healthcare software. These devices enable medical practitioners to monitor pervasively patients’ parameters outside the clinical environment. However, ease manipulating and their data streams raises concerns regarding patient privacy trust. Distributed ledger technologies (DLT) offer solutions enhance resistance against information manipulation eliminate single points failure. By leaveraging DLT, wearable-based can be developed with a wider range capabilities. This paper carries out an analysis shortcomings, limitations, potential applications needs in domain, introduce Phonendo 1.0, DLT–IoT-based platform designed capture from publishing them on distributed technology infrastructure. The architecture its difference services justified based identified challenges domain.
