Assessment of User Needs for Telemedicine Robots in a Developing Nation Hospital Setting.

Telemedicine journal and e-health : the official journal of the American Telemedicine Association
This study aimed to investigate the needs of medical users of telemedicine robots to encourage international cooperation and development. As the use of telemedicine expands, it is necessary to develop new systems, including robots, which consider t...

Artificial Intelligence in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: Innovating Global Health Radiology.

Radiology
Scarce or absent radiology resources impede adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) for medical imaging by resource-poor health institutions. They face limitations in local equipment, personnel expertise, infrastructure, data-rights frameworks, and ...

Efficacy of deep learning methods for predicting under-five mortality in 34 low-income and middle-income countries.

BMJ open
OBJECTIVES: To explore the efficacy of machine learning (ML) techniques in predicting under-five mortality (U5M) in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) and to identify significant predictors of U5M.

Artificial intelligence in health care: laying the Foundation for Responsible, sustainable, and inclusive innovation in low- and middle-income countries.

Globalization and health
The World Health Organization and other institutions are considering Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a technology that can potentially address some health system gaps, especially the reduction of global health inequalities in low- and middle-income c...

Multi-Modal Diagnosis of Infectious Diseases in the Developing World.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
In low and middle income countries, infectious diseases continue to have a significant impact, particularly amongst the poorest in society. Tetanus and hand foot and mouth disease (HFMD) are two such diseases and, in both, death is associated with au...

Robotic Exoskeleton for Wrist and Fingers Joint in Post-Stroke Neuro-Rehabilitation for Low-Resource Settings.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Robots have the potential to help provide exercise therapy in a repeatable and reproducible manner for stroke survivors. To facilitate rehabilitation of the wrist and fingers joint, an electromechanical exoskeleton was developed that simultaneously m...

Development of pedestrian crash prediction model for a developing country using artificial neural network.

International journal of injury control and safety promotion
Urban intersections in India constitute a significant share of pedestrian fatalities. However, model-based prediction of pedestrian fatalities is still in a nascent stage in India. This study proposes an artificial neural network (ANN) technique to d...

Automated Fetal Head Detection and Circumference Estimation from Free-Hand Ultrasound Sweeps Using Deep Learning in Resource-Limited Countries.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
Ultrasound imaging remains out of reach for most pregnant women in developing countries because it requires a trained sonographer to acquire and interpret the images. We address this problem by presenting a system that can automatically estimate the ...

Residential scene classification for gridded population sampling in developing countries using deep convolutional neural networks on satellite imagery.

International journal of health geographics
BACKGROUND: Conducting surveys in low- and middle-income countries is often challenging because many areas lack a complete sampling frame, have outdated census information, or have limited data available for designing and selecting a representative s...
