Internet of Medical Things (IoMT)

PTC’s IoMT overview defines IoMT as connected medical devices/apps that use sensors, automation, and machine intelligence to cut costs and improve outcomes. Core value: remote condition monitoring, audit readiness, and shifting service from reactive “break/fix” to predictive, remote-first models—turning service into a profit center and enabling new models like Product-as-a-Service. Key challenges: security/privacy, complex data ownership, interoperability/implementation, and slow upgrade cycles. PTC highlights wins (e.g., Sysmex), and enabling tech—IIoT platform, AR work instructions, PLM, and CAD. The future: safer, more efficient care and faster, data-driven decisions.
