However, developing countries have poor access to healthcare, making managing possible health risks during pregnancy challenging. An Internet of Things (IoT)-based Medical Cyber-Physical System (MCPS) can offer a valuable and affordable solution for anticipating and controlling health hazards during pregnancy to solve this issue. This paper presents the design and development of an MCPS for recognizing health risks in pregnant women in developing countries. The system collects key health metrics using temperature, blood pressure, glucose levels, and heart rate sensors. It automatically considers risk factors to predict health risks using Machine Learning (ML) and sends them to the nearest clinic or hospital. Patients can manually enter their risk factors into the program and talk with a doctor through it. The efficacy of the proposed MCPS is evaluated using a dataset of pregnant women, and the results demonstrate that the system can accurately detect health issues during pregnancy.

A continuous step time of Δ = 0.001 was used for the Runge–Kutta method in all computations. Notably, the NIM's solutions for the nonlinear multispecies Lotka-Volterra models demonstrate very good accuracy, achieving convergence to the Runge–Kutta method's solutions within five iterations. The correctness of the NIM is found to be better than the other existing solutions. Its distinctive attribute lies in its computational efficiency, providing high accuracy without necessitating linearization, discretization, multipliers, or polynomials for nonlinear terms.

The Diphtheria vaccine is a component of one of the routine vaccines given to children thrice before their first birthday. The protection against diphtheria derived from the diphtheria vaccine in infancy wanes in later childhood, necessitating a booster dose to protect the child as they grow older. To determine the impact of a booster dose of the diphtheria vaccine amidst a contaminated environment, a diphtheria model that incorporates a vaccine booster and a contaminated environment is formulated. The reproduction number R0 is computed and used to prove the local and global stability of the disease-free equilibrium. Global sensitivity analysis is conducted via the application of Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) with a Partial Rank Correlation coefficient on the infected humans and the contaminated environment to deduce the most sensitive parameters of the dynamics of diphtheria disease. Then, the model is further extended based on the result of the global sensitivity analysis by introducing four time-dependent controls, disinfection, screening/treatment, booster vaccination, and hygiene practice, to form an optimal control model. The control model is analyzed using Pontryagin’s maximum principle. The numerical simulation shows that diphtheria disease will reduce drastically in the community if any control combination involves booster vaccination since the diphtheria vaccine in infancy wanes after ten years. In a situation where there are limited resources to implement all the controls simultaneously, it is recommended to implement any two of the combined controls: disinfection of the environment and administration of booster vaccination or screening/treatment of the asymptomatic infected and administration of booster vaccination. The study shows that the best combination is to disinfect the environment, screen/treat the asymptomatic infected humans, and administer booster vaccination to the community.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":73222,"journal":{"name":"Healthcare analytics (New York, N.Y.)","volume":"4 ","pages":"Article 100281"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S277244252300148X/pdfft?md5=fc67091bf8954e4e722cd3691e037515&pid=1-s2.0-S277244252300148X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"109127162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
