Abstract

The rapid development of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has brought new opportunities to the healthcare field, and the Personal Health Record (PHR) generated by the wearable devices in IoMT has become more and more important for the diagnosis and treatment of patients. A PHR sharing model based on Tangle and proxy re-encryption (PRE) is proposed in this paper. In the model, the PHR hash and operation log are stored in the Tangle, and the PHR is shared with medical institutions through lightweight PRE. The Tangle is adopted to meet the demand of high throughput PHR generated by IoMT, and the lightweight PRE provides effective PHR sharing while protecting patient's privacy.
