Hypertension Detection From High-Dimensional Representation of Photoplethysmogram Signals [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Hypertension is commonly referred to as the "silent killer", since it can lead to severe health complications without any visible symptoms. Early detection of hypertension is crucial in preventing significant health issues. Although some studies suggest a relationship between blood pressure and certain vital signals, such as Photoplethysmogram (PPG ...

Core determinants of quality criteria for mhealth for hypertension: evidence from machine learning instruments [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Uncontrolled hypertension is a global problem that needs to be addressed. Despite the many mHealth solutions in the market, the nonadherence relative to intended use jeopardizes treatment success. Although investigating user experience is one of the most important mechanisms for understanding mHealth discontinuance, surprisingly, the core determinants ...
