2D-WinSpatt-Net: A Dual Spatial Self-Attention Vision Transformer Boosts Classification of Tetanus Severity for Patients Wearing ECG Sensors in Low- and Middle-Income Countries.

Tetanus is a life-threatening bacterial infection that is often prevalent in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), Vietnam included. Tetanus affects the nervous system, leading to muscle stiffness and spasms. Moreover, severe tetanus is associated with autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction.

Improving Classification of Tetanus Severity for Patients in Low-Middle Income Countries Wearing ECG Sensors by Using a CNN-Transformer Network.

Tetanus is a life-threatening infectious disease, which is still common in low- and middle-income countries, including in Vietnam. This disease is characterized by muscle spasm and in severe cases is complicated by autonomic dysfunction. Ideally continuous vital sign monitoring using bedside monitors allows the prompt detection of the onset of autonomic nervous system dysfunction or avoiding rapid deterioration.

Classification of Tetanus Severity in Intensive-Care Settings for Low-Income Countries Using Wearable Sensing.

Infectious diseases remain a common problem in low- and middle-income countries, including in Vietnam. Tetanus is a severe infectious disease characterized by muscle spasms and complicated by autonomic nervous system dysfunction in severe cases. Patients require careful monitoring using electrocardiograms (ECGs) to detect deterioration and the onset of autonomic nervous system dysfunction as early as possible.

Sepsis Mortality Prediction Using Wearable Monitoring in Low-Middle Income Countries.

Sepsis is associated with high mortality-particularly in low-middle income countries (LMICs). Critical care management of sepsis is challenging in LMICs due to the lack of care providers and the high cost of bedside monitors. Recent advances in wearable sensor technology and machine learning (ML) models in healthcare promise to deliver new ways of digital monitoring integrated with automated decision systems to reduce the mortality risk in sepsis.
