Abstract
This review examines the progression of advanced medical technologies utilizing data sourced from Scopus and Web of Science. This study examines Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), Augmented Reality (AR), Big Data analytics, and cybersecurity in the context of medical devices. A systematic keyword-based search identified significant trends and contributions, indicating an increasing research interest in these domains. Analysis identified three primary research clusters: AI/AR, IoMT/cybersecurity, and embedded systems. The influence of AI on diagnostics, personalized treatment, and device usability is emphasized, as well as the role of AR in surgical procedures and medical education. The role of IoMT in continuous patient monitoring is examined, highlighting the essential requirement for strong cybersecurity protocols to safeguard sensitive patient information. The research identifies challenges such as the digital divide, interoperability issues, and the necessity for standardized protocols. Future directions involve utilizing Industry 4.0 technologies, such as cyber-physical systems, IoT, and cloud computing, to enhance smart manufacturing, develop personalized medical devices, and improve access to healthcare. The findings emphasize the transformative potential of these technologies and the necessity of addressing current challenges to achieve equitable and effective healthcare delivery.
