Ambulatory Atrial Fibrillation Monitoring Using Wearable Photoplethysmography with Deep Learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 We develop an algorithm that accurately detects Atrial Fibrillation (AF) episodes from photoplethysmograms (PPG) recorded in ambulatory free-living conditions. We collect and annotate a dataset containing more than 4000 hours of PPG recorded from a wrist-worn device.

Monitoring hemolysis continuously in real time [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Blood damage (hemolysis) can occur during clinical procedures, e.g. dialysis, due to human error or faulty equipment, and it can cause significant harm to the patient or even death. We propose a simple technique to monitor changes in hemolysis levels accurately, continuously, and in real time. As red blood cells rupture, the overall conductivity of the

Realtime Particulate Matter and Bacteria Analysis of Peritoneal Dialysis Fluid using Digital Inline Holography [PDF]
arXivWe developed a digital inline holography (DIH) system integrated with deep learning algorithms for real-time detection of particulate matter (PM) and bacterial contamination in peritoneal dialysis (PD) fluids. The system comprises a microfluidic sample delivery module and a DIH imaging module that captures holograms using a pulsed laser and a digital ...

Assistive System in Conversational Agent for Health Coaching: The CoachAI Approach [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 With increasing physicians' workload and patients' needs for care, there is a need for technology that facilitates physicians work and performs continues follow-up with patients. Existing approaches focus merely on improving patient's condition, and none have considered managing physician's workload.

Comparison of sodium removal in peritoneal dialysis patients treated by continuous ambulatory and automated peritoneal dialysis [PDF]
, 2019 BACKGROUND: Optimal fluid balance for peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients requires both water and sodium removal. Previous studies have variously reported that continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) removes more or equivalent amounts of sodium ...
