Abstract Innovative wireless communication technologies using body sensors and
the advent of Internet of things (IoT) are used to introduce many modern health-
care schemes to provide personalized health management and prevent some acute
diseases. Monitoring and caring for patients remotely using modern techniques
such as IoT, cloud computing (CC), and artificial intelligence (AI) are evolving
proposals on healthcare innovations. Over the past decade, taking care of patients
through remote access is widely suggested by different authors to monitor patients
affected by different illnesses like heart disease, neurological sickness, blood pres-
sure, body temperature, chronic disease, diabetes, and obesity. Further, remote moni-
toring is used to care for post-operative patients and aged patients using smart
sensors and intelligent decision-making technologies. CC is a sophisticated tech-
nology comprised of remote servers which act as a gateway of remote access by
connecting intelligent sensors and intelligent devices with the concept of IoT. AI is
a genius technique of making decisions using deep learning (DL) methodology with
the cloud dataset. This chapter illustrates the concept of cloud and AI-based IoT for
remote health caring. It also discusses different decision-making systems using AI
and the principle of operation of several cloud infrastructures used to access secured
medical records. By learning this chapter, the readers and young researchers will
understand the principle and challenges of IoT, CC, and AI in various healthcare
schemes to identify the suitable architecture of the cloud and AI for different disease
diagnosis and patient monitoring.
