• Currently, interest in the development of Internet-of-Things technologies is increasingly penetrating the field of clinical medicine. This paper provides an overview of the use of Internet-of-Things technologies in medical practice using the Scopus database of publications. The classification of publications on the topic of research directions with promising development trends has been performed. With this in mind, the concept of the architecture of a system for monitoring the condition of a patient with Parkinson’s disease is presented. The necessary hardware and software solutions have been developed, taking into account the needs in order to more effectively adjust treatment and monitor the course of the disease. To more accurately determine the state of progression of the patient’s disease, tests have been designed and developed to assess overall emotional and physical well-being. For the most effective correction and control of drug therapy, a prototype of a drug administration device with four compartments for a drug has been designed, each compartment of which is individually controlled by a specially developed Bluetooth data transmission protocol. Access to each compartment is individual, which ensures the versatility of the device for taking several medications throughout the day. The practical application of the solution has also shown the relevance of its use in the task of studying the course of Parkinson’s disease as well as for monitoring the condition of a patient with existing concomitant diseases and the degree of their influence on the course of the underlying disease.
