Secure storage and sharing of patients’ medical data over the Internet are part of the challenges for emerging healthcare systems. The use of blockchain technology in medical Internet of Things systems can be considered a safe and novel solution to overcome such challenges. Patients with movement disorders require multi-disciplinary management and must continuously receive medical care from a specialist. Due to the increasing costs of face-to-face treatment, especially during the pandemic, patients would highly benefit from remote monitoring and management. The proposed work presents a model for blockchain-based remote management systems for patients with movement disorders, especially those with Parkinson’s disease. The model ensures a high level of integrity and decreases the security risks of medical data sharing.
