BACKGROUND: Spirometry is conventionally used to diagnose airway diseases in children with sickle cell disease (C-SCD). However, spirometry is difficult for younger children to perform, is effort dependent, and it provides limited information on resp...

Cuff-less blood pressure (BP) monitoring is increasingly being needed for cardiovascular events management in clinical. Many of the existing methods, however, are based on manual feature extraction, which cannot characterize the complex relationship ...
INTRODUCTION: The use of machine learning (ML) methods would improve the diagnosis of respiratory changes in systemic sclerosis (SSc). This paper evaluates the performance of several ML algorithms associated with the respiratory oscillometry analysis...

The use of automated non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) measurement devices is growing, as they can be used without expertise, and BP measurement can be performed by patients at home. Non-invasive cuff-based monitoring is the dominant method for BP m...
BACKGROUND: The forced oscillation technique (FOT) allows non-invasive lung function testing during quiet breathing even without expert guidance. However, it still relies on an operator for excluding breaths with artefacts such as swallowing, glottis...
Cardiovascular disease is known as the number one cause of death globally, with elevated blood pressure (BP) being the single largest risk factor. Hence, BP is an important physiological parameter used as an indicator of cardiovascular health. The us...

BACKGROUND: In this work, we developed many machine learning classifiers to assist in diagnosing respiratory changes associated with sarcoidosis, based on results from the Forced Oscillation Technique (FOT), a non-invasive method used to assess pulmo...
The measurement of physiologic pressure helps diagnose and prevent associated health complications. From typical conventional methods to more complicated modalities, such as the estimation of intracranial pressures, numerous invasive and noninvasive ...
. Diagnosing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) using impulse oscillometry (IOS) is challenging due to the high level of clinical expertise it demands from doctors, which limits the clinical application of IOS in screening. The primary aim ...
BACKGROUND: The use of machine learning(ML) methods would improve the diagnosis of small airway dysfunction(SAD) in subjects with chronic respiratory symptoms and preserved pulmonary function(PPF). This paper evaluated the performance of several ML a...
