Abstract
This paper is concerned by the fact that the health sector represents a major development challenge for emerging countries. However, it faces many challenges that affect the quality of care provided and makes it almost impossible to guarantee an adequate level of accessibility for all social classes of the population. These reasons motivated us to study a medical control system based on the Internet of Things that could significantly improve the conditions of medical care and ensure effective and effective medical follow-up by automating the process of taking during the consultations and by preserving the information thus obtained for restitution in case of emergency or medical follow-up of the patients. At the end of our study, we were able to define the challenges posed by technological tools in improving the conditions of health structures and to simulate the functioning of the system we designed.
