Healthcare technologies have witnessed substantial advances with the introduction of AI, IoT, and mobile health
solutions targeting specific challenges like fall detection, wound classification, resource management, and blood
bank coordination. Fall detection systems, as surveyed by Prabath et al. (2021) and Patil et al. (2020), have primarily
relied on wearable sensors and single-modal detection algorithms. While these systems demonstrate promise in controlled
environments, their practical deployment often suffers from limited accuracy, high false-positive rates, and dependence on
manual activation, restricting autonomous emergency response capabilities. Integrating multi-sensor fusion and automated
alerting mechanisms with GPS-based location tracking remains a crucial area requiring further innovation (Jayadeep, 2020; Ali et al., 2021).

In parallel, AI-driven wound classification has seen significant research progress.
Deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks (CNNs), have achieved high classification
accuracy in curated clinical datasets (Zhang & Zhang, 2018; Yang & Li, 2019). However, practical challenges
arise due to the variability in image capture conditions typical in emergency or mobile healthcare settings,
such as inconsistent lighting and angles (Patel & Saini, 2020). Furthermore, many existing studies emphasize
classification performance but lack integration with clinical workflows or decision support for triage and treatment,
limiting their utility in fast-paced emergency environments.
