Proposed Model for Chest Disease Prediction using Data Analyticsvivatechijri
Chest diseases if not properly diagnosed in early stages can be fatal. Because of lack of skilled
knowledge or experiences of real life practitioners, many a times one chest disease is wrongly diagnosed for the
other, which leads to wrong treatment. Due to this the actual disease keeps on growing and become fatal. For
example, muscular chest pains can be treated for the heart disease or COPD is treated for Asthma. Early
prediction of chest disease is crucial but is not an easy task. Consequently, the computer based prediction system
for chest disease may play a significant role as a pre-stage detection to take proper actions with a view to recover
from it. However the choice of the proper Data Mining classification method can effectively predict the early
stage of the disease for being cured from it. In this paper, the three mostly used classification techniques such as
support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbour (KNN) and artificial neural network (ANN) have been studied
with a view to evaluating them for chest disease prediction.

Intelligent data analysis for medicinal diagnosisIRJET Journal
The document describes a proposed privacy-preserving patient-centric clinical decision support system called PPCD that uses naive Bayesian classification to help doctors predict disease risks for patients in a privacy-preserving manner. PPCD allows medical diagnosis and prediction of disease risks for new patients without leaking any individual patient medical information. It utilizes historical medical information from past patients, stored privately in the cloud, to train a naive Bayesian classifier. This trained classifier can then be used to diagnose diseases for new patients based on their symptoms while preserving privacy. The system also introduces a new aggregation technique called additive homomorphic proxy aggregation to allow training of the naive Bayesian classifier without revealing individual patient medical records.

This document presents a new methodology to detect the effects of emotions on different biometrics in real time. Two designs were implemented based on a microcontroller and National Instruments myRIO to measure four vital parameters (temperature, heartbeat, blood pressure, body resistance) in real-time while recording the effects of different emotions on those parameters. Over 400 people were tested while exposed to videos and music representing different emotions. The results showed that the design using NI myRIO achieved more accurate results and faster response time compared to the microcontroller-based design, qualifying it for use in intensive care units. The methodology contributes to early diagnosis of diseases by analyzing the impact of emotions on vital readings.

Due to the advances in information and communication technologies, the usage of the internet of things (IoT) has reached an evolutionary process in the development of the modern health care environment. In the recent human health care analysis system, the amount of brain tumor patients has increased severely and placed in the 10th position of the leading cause of death. Previous state-of-the-art techniques based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) faces challenges in brain tumor detection as it requires accurate image segmentation.

Performance Analysis of Routing Metrics in Manetpijans
Mobile Ad-hoc Network has become popular in recent years by many researchers. The objective of this paper is to implement the Multi Order Polynomial (MOP) in MANET. According to this paper , it is hypothesized that to work in MANET field , a novel approach can be used for computing routing metrics (like Packet Delivery Ratio, Normalized Routing Load, Average End To End Delay and many others). Although simulation is performed on number of routing protocols but in this paper only two routing protocols AODV(Ad-hoc On Demand Distance Vector) and DSR( Dynamic Source Routing) are tested through Network Simulator and results are obtained under different scenarios. The results obtained from simulation are validated using MOP( Multi order polynomial) expressions for the same and also computed some results and observed that the some expressions some facts are observed according to which order of polynomial performs better with minimum error rate, in this paper ninth order of polynomial expression generate the result, which is found to be satisfactory with maximum fitness value (1.0) for various routing metrics
UTCARP: Urban Traffic Control Aware Routing Protocolpijans
Vehicular Ad hoc networks (VANETs) are being advocated as a means to increase road safety and driving
comfort, as well as to facilitate traffic control. Road congestion and traffic-related pollution have a large
negative social and economic impact on several economies worldwide. Due to the high dynamic nature of
the network topology in VANETs, finding and maintaining the routes for data forwarding is still more
challenging. In this paper, we propose a urban traffic control aware routing protocol for VANETs that is
called UTCARP. It considers two modules of (i) the traffic control aware selection of vertices through
which a packet is passed toward its destination and (ii) the greedy forwarding strategy by which a packet
is forwarded between two adjacent vertices. The simulation results illustrate that the proposed
approach outperforms conventional protocols in terms of packet delivery ratio, end-to-end delay and
routing overhead.
Performance Evaluation of Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (Vanet) Using Clustering A...pijans
Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETS) have actually attracted a lot of attention over the last few years as
being used to improve road safety. In this paper, cluster based technique has been introduced in VANET.
As VANET is a new form of MANET, so with this cluster based technique in VANET, several handoff
problems have been removed, which were actually difficult to remove in MANET. For this traffic
infrastructure cluster based routing has been used, with two routing protocols i.e. AODV and AODV+. The
network simulator NS2 has been used for removing unpredictable movements that may arise in the network.
An Optimized Mechanism for Adaptive and Dynamic Policy Based Handover in Clus...pijans
On-going revolution in ever-improving wireless communication enforces the necessity of a self configuring,
rapidly deployable and infrastructure less network. MANET is such an autonomous wireless network that
meets the requirements. At the same time MANET’s random behavior and absence of any central
intelligence to gather unambiguous knowledge about user contexts complexes QoS maintenance and
hampers proper utilization of network resources resulting into unnecessary handovers. In past, few policy
driven handover approaches have been proposed for MANET but none of them explores a comprehensive
policy design. Therefore in this paper we propose an adaptive and optimized policy based handover
mechanism which is based on explicitly designed policies like load balancing, service discovery and next
hop selection .Efficient procedures for these policies are also explored .This work predicts the high time of
handover need on the basis of application specific needs of individual freely roaming mobile nodes,
avoiding unnecessary handovers and provides efficient handover procedure with optimized resource
consumption, reduced latency and interruption time.
An Efficient Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad Hoc Network for Secured Communica...pijans
Security and reliable communication is challenging task in mobile Ad Hoc network. Through mobility of network device compromised with attack and loss of data. For the prevention of attack and reliable communication, various authors proposed a method of secured routing protocol such as SAODV and SBRP (secured backup routing protocol). The process of these methods work along with route discovery and route maintains, discovery and route maintained needed more power consumption for that process. The power of devices is decrease during such process and network lifetimes expire. In this paper, we modified the secured stateless protocol for secured routing and minimized the utilization of power during path discovering and establishment. For the authentication of group node used group signature technique and sleep mode threshold concept for power minimization. Our proposed technique is simulated in ns-2 and compare to other routing protocol gives a better performance in comparison to energy consumption and throughput of network.
As-Puma : Anycast Semantics In Parking Using Metaheuristic Approachpijans
The number of vehicle used in the world are increasing day by day resulting in the obvious problem of
parking of these vehicle’s in residential and vocational areas. We perceive the problem of vehicles parking
in vocational establishments / malls. Today majority of parking systems are manual parking systems where
in, on the spot, parking of the vehicle is done and a parking slip is generated and handed over to customer.
This is cumbersome technique wherein various parking attendants in the parking areas manually keeps on
informing the Parking inspector on how many free parking slots available so that only that many number of
parking slips/tickets are generated as the number of free parking slots. We address the problem of parking
in Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) by proposing metaheuristic driven approach of Ant Colony optimization
(ACO) technique with anycast semantics models . Here we propose the parking architecture to solve the
problem of parking especially in commercial areas with their design diagrams . In this architecture we
apply the delivery model to deliver the packet correctly to the intended receiver. Using this we can book
various parking’s through remote areas so that the customer can get the information about availability of
various parking’s inside an area and the parking fare for each category of the automobile. Using this
architecture the customer can get the prior knowledge about various vacant parking slots inside a parking
area and he can book the corresponding parking from his location.
A Survey of Enhanced Routing Protocols for Manetspijans
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) form a class of dynamic multi-hop networks consisting of a set of
mobile nodes that intercommunicate on shared wireless channels. MANETs are self-organizing and selfconfiguring multi-hop wireless networks, where the network structure changes dynamically due to the node
mobility. There exists no fixed topology due to the mobility of nodes, interference, multipath propagation
and path loss. Hence efficient dynamic routing protocols are required for these networks to function
properly. Many routing protocols have been developed to accomplish this task. In this paper we survey
various new routing protocols that have been developed as extensions or advanced versions of previously
existing routing protocols for MANETs such as DSR, AODV, OLSR etc.
Black Hole Attack Prevention Using Random Dispersive Routing for Mobile Adhoc...pijans
Mobile Adhoc Networks is a wireless network and it has become an important technology in current years
in which security has become an important problem. Black hole Attack is one of the promising and severe
security attacks in mobile ad hoc networks which block the communication of secret data during packet
delivery. Black hole attack directly attacks the node’s data traffic on the path and with intent drops, alters
or delays the data traffic passing through that node. In other type of black hole attack which misleadingly
replies for the route request which comes from the node which initiates the route discovery process that it
has as much as necessary routes to the destination even it does not have path to the destination. This paper
deals with prevention of black hole attacks using Shamir’s secret sharing and Random Multipath Routing

Performance Analysis of Mtpr Routing Protocol in Power Deficient Nodepijans
Power conservation in Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a major challenge even today for researchers.
To conserve it various power aware routing protocols have been proposed. These protocols do not take into
consideration the residual power left in nodes. To find the impact of the same a simulator was designed in
MATLAB-7.01. The routing protocol used in our simulation is Minimum Total Power Routing (MTPR) and
different performance metrics such as path optimality, throughput and hop count were recorded in
presence and absence of power scarce node. The result shows significant impact of power scarce node on
MANET performance.
Path Duration Analysis in Vehicular Ad Hoc Networkpijans
In Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) the mobility of the nodes is the main concern. This mobility of
nodes makes the route unstable and unreliable for the information exchange and communication between
two nodes in the network. To enhance the performance and throughput of the VANETs, routes between
nodes must be reliable and stable. In this paper, we study the significance of path duration and link
duration in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs). Because of this mobility, connectivity graphs changes
very frequently and it affects the performance of VANETs. Therefore, path duration can be used to predict
the behaviour of the mobile nodes in the network. Estimation of the path duration in VANETs can be a key
factor to improve the performance of the routing protocol. Estimation of path duration is a challenging task
to perform as it depends on many parameters including node density, transmission range, numbers of hops,
and velocity of nodes. This paper will provide a comprehensive study for estimating the path duration in
VANETs.

Power Control in Mobile Ad Hoc networks is a critical issue, since nodes are powered by batteries.The
main idea of power control schemes is to use different power levels for RTS/CTS and DATA/ACK. These
schemes may degrade network throughput and reduce energy efficiency of the network. In this paper we
have evaluated the performance of Improved Autonomous Power Control MAC Protocol (IAPCMP),that
allows nodes to dynamically adjust power levels for transmission of DATA/ACK according to the distance
between the transmitter and its neighbors.In IAPCMP power level for transmission of RTS/CTS is also
adjustable. This also used maximum power level for transmitting DATA/ACK periodically to make
neighboring nodes aware about ongoing transmission. The performance of IAPCMP is evaluated through
the metrics namely, packet delivery ratio and rate of energy efficiency.The simulation results show
significant improvement in protocol.
A Survey of Using Directional Antennas in Ad Hoc Networkspijans
In this paper, we present a comprehensive overview on Ad hoc networking by directional antennas. Use of
Directional antennas can largely reduce the interference, increase the spatial reuse and due to their longer

directional antennas in Ad hoc networks is due to the dynamic nature of the network. Neighbour discovery,
maintenance the track of moving neighbours, exploitation of the benefit of long range and directional MAC
protocols are the most challenging issues. We present three Directional MAC protocols and two
combinational protocols and system which give solutions to MAC and Neighbour discovery and compare
the throughput of them with 802.11 with omnidirectional antennas.

An Efficient Call Admission Control Scheme for Handling Handoffs in Wireless ...pijans
Personal Communication Network (PCN) is an emerging wireless network that promises many new
services for the telecommunication industry. The proliferation of demands for extending wireless services
to integrated services, which supports the transmission of data and multimedia information, has resulted in
the need for broadband wireless systems that are able to provide service capabilities similar to those of
wire line networks. The ATM cell - relay paradigm is one possible approach to provide broadband wireless
transmission with PCN’s using the ATM switching networks for interconnection of PCN cells. As traffic in
these mobile cellular networks increases, Handoffs will become an increasingly important issue. As cell
sizes shrink to accommodate an increasingly large demand of services, newer more efficient handoff
schemes need to be used. In this paper, the authors describe the use of novel and efficient data structure
which dynamically allocates guard channel for handoffs and introduces the concept of channel borrowing
strategy. The proposed scheme allocates the guard channels for handoff requests dynamically, based on the
traffic load for certain time period. A new originating call in the cell coverage area also uses these guard
channels if they are unused. Our basic idea is to allow Guard channels to be shared between new calls and
handoff calls. This approach maximizes the channel utilization. The simulation results prove that the
channel borrowing scheme improves the overall throughput.
Design and Implementation of Low-Cost Electric Vehicles (EVs) Supercharger: A...pijans
This article presents a probabilistic modeling method utilizing smart meter data and an innovative agentbased simulator for electric vehicles (EVs). The aim is to assess the effects of different cost-driven EV charging strategies on the power distribution network (PDN). We investigate the effects of a 40% EV adoption on three parts of Frederiksberg's low voltage distribution network (LVDN), a densely urbanized municipality in Denmark. Our findings indicate that cable and transformer overloading especially pose a challenge. However, the impact of EVs varies significantly between each LVDN area and charging scenario. Across scenarios and LVDNs, the share of cables facing congestion ranges between 5% and 60%. It is also revealed that time-of-use (ToU)-based and single-day cost-minimized charging could be beneficial for LVDNs with moderate EV adoption rates. In contrast, multiple-day optimization will likely lead to severe congestion, as such strategies concentrate demand on a single day that would otherwise be distributed over several days, thus raising concerns about how to prevent it. The broader implications of our research suggest that, despite initial worries primarily centered on congestion due to unregulated charging during peak hours, a transition to cost-based smart charging, propelled by an increasing awareness of time-dependent electricity prices, may lead to a significant rise in charging synchronization, bringing about undesirable consequences for the power distribution network (PDN).

numerous constraints such as time, curriculum, and stakeholder expectations, it is feasible to develop effective
immersive environments. This paper explores the concept of immersion language learning, tracing its historical
development and highlighting its benefits, particularly for young learners. It discusses the distinctions between
total, partial, and dual-immersion programs, emphasizing the critical role of using the target language as the
medium of instruction. Furthermore, it examines the cognitive and academic advantages documented in seminal
immersion programs like Saint-Lambert and Coral Way. By synthesizing research and offering practical
strategies for EFL settings, this paper underscores the importance of teacher commitment, the selection of
appropriate materials, and the adoption of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) principles.
Ultimately, the findings affirm that immersive environments significantly enhance language proficiency,
cognitive flexibility, and academic achievement, advocating for their broader implementation in EFL
classrooms.

The Influence of Green Tax Implementation and Social Responsibility Programs ...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT : The issue of climate change related to carbon emissions has become an alarming global
phenomenon. The manufacturing sector contributes significantly to global greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore,
efforts to mitigate climate change through the implementation of green taxes and Social Responsibility
Programsare important for manufacturing industry. This research aims to analyze the effect of implementing
green tax and Social Responsibility Programs on environmentally sustainable development in manufacturing
industry. A quantitative approach is used with the research object of manufacturing industry listed on the
Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2020-2022. Analyzed using Partial Least Square (PLS) method. The research
results show that the implementation of green tax has a significant effect on environmentally sustainable
development, while Social Responsibility Programsdo not have a significant effect. These findings indicate that
green tax policies are effective in encouraging companies to switch to more environmentally friendly business
practices, but Social Responsibility Programshave not been fully integrated with environmental sustainability
efforts. This research contributes to the literature related to fiscal policy instruments and corporate social
responsibility practices in supporting environmentally sound sustainable development in the manufacturing
sector.

ABSTRACT
Pediatric emergency cases need rapid systems that measure vital body parameters data, analyze and
categorize emergency cases for precise action. Current systems use manual examination resulting in
delayed medication, death, or other severe medical conditions.In this paper, we propose a Internet of
Things (IoT) based model, created using Balena fin with Raspberry pi compute module. It is used for
determining emergency cases, in pediatric section, specifically the triage section. It is later tested using
hospital data that represents the vital parameters in pediatric. Our approach entails designing and setting
up the hardware and software infrastructure, to accommodate data via Bluetooth protocol, and transmit it
to the cloud server database via Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT). Later, we perform
machine learning on the data by training a model and finally develop a Plotly Dash analytical application
integrating the model for visualization near real-time.Findings show that emergency cases are detected
using vital body parameters which include the body temperature, oxygen levels, heart rate and the age. The
model indicates a 97% accuracy.In conclusion, children’s emergency cases are detected in time using IoT
gadgets and machine learning classification.

1. INTRODUCTION
Children's health emergency cases are on the rise. The need for convenient, efficient, affordable,
urgent, and preventive medication has led to the development of e-health models over the past
years. These models measure vital body parameters, analyze and diagnose diseases and
conditions to aid medical decision-making. Current systems are manual therefore, they need
specialization and automation to enhance service delivery in hospitals.
Modern e-health models are based on cloud computing, IoT gadgets, wearable sensors, and
modern data analytical methods. Some are also linked to medical databases for efficiency and
data retrieval.
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) Lansdown stated that
children have a right to be heard and participate in healthcare issues [1]. Among the issues
include understanding their health conditions, giving their views, and participating in health
decision-making. Currently, parents and healthcare professionals are the ones who take that role.
Usage of e-health solutions can remove the barriers and assist children to communicate with
health care professionals [2]. The use of IoT gadgets will assist the children to express
themselves electronically by analyzing their vital body parameters and hence emergency status.

In this paper, we propose an IoT based model, that employs peripherals and BalenaFin gadgets
with Raspberry Pi compute module at its core for vital body parameter data collection. The
gadgets use Bluetooth and other protocols such as MQTT for data communication. Data is sent to
a cloud server database infrastructure and later machine learning techniques are applied to the
data to categorize children into emergency, no emergency, and moderate emergency.
Several models on e-health have been proposed showing that there are severalIoT gadgets made
by different manufacturers for semantic sensing [3]. These devices collect data using different
data formats, which causes a problem in device interoperability, and data normalization. Jin and
Kim [3] created an e-health model that addresses interoperability issues in the IoT devices and
supporting data with different style formats.
The rest of the paper presents related works methodology used, implementation, results,
discussion, and conclusion.
2. RELATED WORKS
Studies focusing on children cases exist, for instance, Jangra and Gupta created a system for
monitoring and recording patients data [5]. The model consisted of three sensors that collected
heart rate, temperature, and blood pressure data from the patients, raising alerts whenever it
encountered abnormalities. In [5] normal Blood Pressure range was 80-120 mm Hg while the
body temperature normal range was 36.5-37.5C and Heart Rate normal range was 60-100
beats/min. The model also used the data collected to analyze and predict chronic disorders using
data mining techniques. The challenge with the model is that it is suited for specific chronic
diseases such as heart attack.
In [3], a model is developed to address the device interoperability issue and normalization of
data. It proposes various gadgets that measure different parameters, for instance, the IoT blood
pressure gadget is used to measure blood pressure-related data, electromyography gadgets collect
data related to body muscles, and the galvanic skin response gadget is used to gather patients'
emotional behaviors. Further, a close look at these technologies shows that most analysis of a
patient's information involves temperature, blood pressure, muscle data, and skin responses.
However, the challenge with the model is that it only tested interoperability issues and largely
neglected data analysis.
Another related low-cost sensor e-health model that offers medical services was also created [6].
The model uses low power and has an increased data accuracy [6]. It can perform medical checks
using Sensor Controllers (SC), and the results are communicated to mobile or tablet devices,
from SC and logical gateways. The model, which uses IoT gadgets like body position sensor,
ECG, Airflow, electromyogram-EMG, thermometer, glucose sensor, galvanic skin response
sensor, and blood pressure gadgets, has been shown to produce accurate results hence good for
hospitals. The limitation of the model is that it fails to indicate the level of emergency of a
patient.
Another related model constructed using different IoT gadgets which assisted in collecting data
about the quality of air, the temperature, detection of earthquakes, level of light, level of humidity
among others is proposed [4]. Using this data, the model makes meaningful insights for decision-
making. IoT gadgets used in water management were also used to ensure the water is well
distributed within the hospital premise efficiently. The gadgets assisted to reduce the wastage of
water via leaking. The IoT gadgets were used to monitor when the dustbin was full and needed to
be emptied. This reduced the human efforts to keep on checking the bin now and then in addition

to raising the standards of hygiene within the hospital premises. Further, the model used gadgets
like smart wheelchairs and body stretchers.
3. METHODOLOGY
A. Experimental Planning and Preparation of Materials
In this study, an experimental research design is used based on a recorded data that includes heart
rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels, and body temperature gotten from the child subject seeking
medical attention. The recorded body parameters are sent to the BalenaFin industrial grade
development board via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) protocol. The board has Bluetooth, WIFI,
and ethernet communication features.
The central development board referred to as the central device, has a program developed using
python programming language, to hold and save the vitals, in this case, heart rate, body
temperature, oxygen levels, and blood pressure.
The peripheral device is enabled to be easily discovered and connected to the central device using
a MAC address. The actual MAC address of the device is also saved with the data of the child to
assist identify the child and the age.
The central device operates in active mode since it is receiving the recorded data. The pairing
process is
preconfigured and connections established with the data. Data received on the central device is
first stored locally on a .csv file as backup, at the same time it is sent to a cloud server via the
internet connection to the internet hotspot. The MQTT that transports messages between devices
sends data to the cloud server and stores it in a database.
A cloud server is set up on an Amazon Web Service (AWS) instance with the Debian/Ubuntu
operating system. Anaconda development environment installed on the virtual machine (cloud
server) to facilitate the use of Jupyter notebook computational software. A NoSQL time series
influx database is also installed for data storage from subscribed MQTT topics.
B. Population, Sampling and Sample Size
The study population included children seeking treatment at Murang’a level 5 hospital and
Kangema level 4 hospital. Both hospitals are located in Murangacounty, Kenya. The two
hospitals were chosen because they have specialized departments that deal with child healthcare.
On average, 40 children visit Murang’a level 5 hospital while 30 children visit Kangema level 4
hospital per day. Thisdata was collected to assist in the general testing of the model. Therefore.
We used purposive sampling to determine the sample size. The patient demographics were high
since it served children from neighboring counties and referrals.
We used the following formula to calculate the sample size as proposed in Michael Slovin (1960)
n=N/(1+Ne^2)
Where n=number of sample size
N=Total population
e=confidential level.

We got a confidence level of 0.02. It provides a 98% level of accuracy. From a population of 40
at the Murang’a level 5 hospital, we obtained a sample size of 59 children i.e.
n=N/(1+Ne^2)
n=40/(1+(40*0.02^2)
n=40/(1+0.024)
n=39.3
n=39
In addition, we obtained a sample of 33 children from a population of 33 at the Kangema level 4
hospital i.e.
n=N/(1+Ne^2)
n=33/(1+(33*0.02^2)
n=30/(1+0.0132)
n=33.4
n=33
This information on sample sizes used in this study is shown in Table 1.

C. Data Collection
In this study, Data recorded in the past three months in both hospitals was used to train the
machine learning algorithm, that was implemented in the model.
D. Data Analysis
Heart rate, blood pressure, temperature, and oxygen levels were used to classify emergency cases.
Random Forest classifier was used to make predictions on the data. Anaconda helps in analytics.
It is a software that was installed along with numerous analytical tools and libraries including
Jupyter notebook. A python3 virtual environment was set up and SciKit-Learn, scipy, NumPy,
Matplotlib, pandas among other libraries. The virtual environment was created to keep all
libraries native to the application and development. Using the Jupyter notebook a Random Forest
Classifier is trained using hospital recorded data. 75% of the data was used in training while 25%
validating the model accuracy. A large part of the dataset was used to train the model to achieve
higher accuracy and only a small sample was used to validate.
E. Ethical Considerations
Issues such as children's privacy, data protection, accessibility, and rights were considered by
ensuring that the data collected from the hospitals were only viewed by the specialists concerned.
Also, in the creation of the model, only the medics were able to view the data on the frontend

screen. We also obtained permission from relevant local authorities and bodies to handle the data
such as NACOSTI, county health services and the Ministry of education in Muranga, Kenya.
4. IMPLEMENTATION
A. Factors Needed to Identify Children Emergency Cases
Children show a specific range of symptoms to indicate a need for urgent medication. These
symptoms are detected by the use of IoT - based gadgets since it is not easy to measure them
accurately using standard equipment and also due to age. They include blood pressure, heart rate,
body temperature, respiratory rate, and oxygen concentration.
Heart Rate: The heart rate indicates the number of times the heart beats per minute[7]. The child
heart rate values are indicated in the heart rate table [8].
Body Temperature:
Body temperature in children is considered as one of the most contributing factors to medical
consultation in children and referred to fever as a symptom that contributes up to 25% as to why
consultation is crucial for children. [9]. From the research temperature can be as low as 360C
when a child is asleep to 37.80C when the child is active, however for clinical and research
purposes, fever is defined as 380c or higher. The most considered value for normal temperature
for children is 36.5-37.50C.
Blood Pressure: For children, blood pressure value depends on age. Children from birth to one
month have a blood pressure value of 67 to 84 systolic blood pressure over 31 to 45 diastolic
[10]. Children from one month to twelve months have a blood pressure of 72 to 104 systolic over
37 to 56 diastolic. When a child turns a year old, their blood pressure tends to progress towards
adult values. For example, 1 to 2 years child has blood pressure values changes to systolic 86 to
106, diastolic 42 to 63, a child aged 3 to 5 has a blood pressure of systolic 89 to 112, diastolic 46
to 72, a child aged 6 to 11 years, have a blood pressure of systolic 97 to 120, diastolic 57 to 80.
Twelve years and above have the same blood pressure as adults because their heart and breathing
muscles have developed to almost the level of adult implying that their blood pressure is systolic
110 to 131, diastolic 64 to 83
Oxygen levels: It is the amount of oxygen circulating in the blood. From the pediatric chart, the
value ranges from >90% to 100%
B. Health IOT - Based Gadget for Monitoring Children Health Cases.
Pulse Oximeter:It is a device used to measure the oxygen level of the blood. It checks on how
well oxygen is being sent to parts of your body furthest from your heart, such as the arms and
legs.
Blood Pressure and Heart Rate Sensor: It can be explained as an IoT gadget, used to indicate the
pressure of the blood. It uses a non-invasive method where the piercing is not necessary [11]. It
measures systolic and diastolic, and it also indicates the values of the hate rate.
Temperature sensor: It is an IoT device used to determine the temperature level of a human
being. [13].

C. Model Design
BalenaFin carrier board with Raspberry Pi compute module at its core, is the central device of the
system. It is an industrial design grade, power-efficient, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi data transmission
protocol enabled, and it is suitable for this model.
Both the recorded data and simulated data using python libraries, are separated in a way to clearly
indicate the body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen concentration among
others. The data is saved in a comma separated values file.
A Bluetooth network is designed with a piconet topology. The network has a central device,
attached with a raspberry pi 3 module, and the data assumed to have been collected using
peripheral devices from the hospitals. The central device is powered using jack barrel power
supply type and connectivity is configured for both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. A data packet Bluetooth
scanning, collection, and saving python3 program is run on the central device.
Advertised data packets in this case the recorded and simulated data, are scanned, collected, and
saved on a .csv file on the central device for backup awaiting transmission to a cloud server. The
data is later sent to an AWS cloud server database via MQTT. It is from here, where the
developed front-facing dash application query data, analyses using machine learning techniques
and visualizes emergency inferences. Figure 1 shows the initial concept design. The following
IoT technologies and devices were used;
1. BalenaFin
BalenaFin is a suitable industrial customized development board designed with the Raspberry Pi
Compute Module 3 and 3+. It acts as a breakout and carrier board. It gives access to internal
firmware (RasbianOs) and wireless communication protocols such as Bluetooth version 4.2 that
comes on board as a radio connectivity protocol. It operates at a frequency of 2.4GHZ, and can
sense nearby Bluetooth devices up to a range of 10m.
It has a robust design for deployment in the field, for instance, in hospitals with suitable
enclosures, and enough computational power for resource processes such as threading, pairing,
connecting, and disconnecting. The board is powered by 6V-24V power sources. In addition, it
has extended GPIO pins for scalability and integration with other pediatric systems. In this work,
we took advantage of the computational resources, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi wireless data
transmission protocols onboarded.
The dual-band 802.11ac standard, 2.4GHz and also 5GHz Wi-Fi is also on the hardware and can
simultaneously be used when in a place without a wired 10/100 Ethernet connection to send and
receive data.
2. Sensor’s devices and simulated data
Smart bands at times referred to as bracelets are modern generic wrist-worn electronic gadgets.
They are mostly customized for health reference and sport activity monitoring. Initially, the
devices were used as pedometers. However, the latest advancements have made the device
applications increase significantly since 2012 (e.g in the health sector). They are cheaper and
meet functionality, standard hardware, and software requirements. They can be bought off the
shelf at a cost of less than Ksh 7000. Most of them are not accurate and need configuration and
some information from the user such as age, weight, and height among others.
7. Advanced Medical Sciences: An International Journal (AMS) Vol 8, No.1/2/3, August 2021

Accurate smart bracelets measure heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels, and body temperature
when worn on the wrist. They have temperature, optical, ECG, photoelectric, and vibration
sensors that can provide valuable information about a child. It is worn with a grip on the wrist for
accurate results since the system is non-intrusive and can be affected by weather actors and
surrounding environments.
Normally the bands have specific android applications to pair to the peripheral device and collect
data. They have authentication keys that have expiry sessions per user.
3. Cloud Server
Data storage, data analysis, and serving the front-facing application are done on Amazon Web
Services (AWS) ec2 cloud server. It is a t2-micro instance with Linux operating system. The data
sent from the microcontroller is received in a database installed on the server. Also, the dash
application developed was deployed on the instance. It has 8 vCPUs, and 64 GB of hard disc,
providing enough memory to do basic computation and data storage.
4. Software
Development of the microcontroller firmware and algorithms was done in the python3
programming language. The Bluetooth data collection and transmission programs were also
developed in python3 with the use of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi libraries and packages that help in
channeling.
For data analysis and visualization, the Plotly Dash application was used since it is a productive
python framework for building web analytic applications and has various data representation
methods and charts. It was developed on top of Flask, React.js, and Plotly.js, which are ideal for
building data visualization applications, with highly custom user interfaces in python. It was
suited for data-related work in python. Data was queried from the database analyzed and
visualized on the application.
5. Data transmission protocols
Data transmission protocols are set standards and sets of rules that allow computers and systems
to exchange data. Also, they are responsible for how they interpret and format the data. Data
transmission protocols are different depending on the need, application, and physical factors. It
defines the packet structure and control commands that manage the communication session, for
instance, Bluetooth wireless, IP(TC/IP), 802.11 wireless Wi-Fi, and ATM. Any application can
employ one or more of these data transmission protocols. In this work, Wi-Fi, Ethernet and also
Bluetooth were used. Ethernet was used for debugging, interfacing as well as sharing the internet
with the central device. Bluetooth was used as an assumption that the recorded and simulated
data, were transmitted to the central device using it
6. Plotly Dash
A dash application is a data analytical app purposely developed for this work to visualize and
persist data to the pediatrician. It was developed on top of the flask, plotly.js, react.js framework,
and python programming language. The application visualizes real-time data streams and handles
real-time classification. In addition, data can be back-traced to view historical records and
classify specific subsets of the data.

Figure 1: Initial conceptual diagram
The central device, simulated and recorded data interoperability
The operating system was installed on the compute module, a Raspbian Os. Wi-Fi name and
password are configured to connect the device to the internet. The work of the central device is to
act as a client from a client-server perspective by scanning and collecting simulated data and
recorded advertised by python libraries and sensors gargets respectively. MAC addresses
representing sensor garget are used whenever communication is needed. BalenaFin is powered
with the barrel jack power supply and connected on Ethernet LAN cable to the computer via
Secure Shell (SSH) for debugging and programming.
Parameter Simulation, Data Collection, and Transmission to AWS
A coding program to simulate data from peripheral devices was developed to generate and send
data to the AWS cloud server for saving. The parameter ranges were selected carefully according
to Murang’a Provincial Hospital and World Health Organization (WHO) standards for children’s
health for pediatric use.
The data was published to a health_channel topic and the server-side program got the data from
the central device remotely. At the same time, the data is saved on the central device on a .csv file
as shown below.
On the AWS IoT Core, the subscription program subscribes to the health_channel and saves the
data to the influx time-series database. Timestamps for the recorded data are also recorded. The
data saved in the influx database is as shown in figure 2.
Figure 2: Simulated data saved in influxdb

Data collected were analyzed to uncover insights. A Random Forest classifier was trained using
labeled data collected from the hospital records of about 820 records. Labeling entailed working
closely with a pediatrician to uncover the emergency state based on the 6 parameters, namely,
age, body temperature, blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen level. 72 data points saved on a
.csv file were used for the machine learning process.
There are three classes a child is classified into based on their vital body parameters. Important
Sklearn modules are imported and data loaded to pandas data frame tables using pandas to create
a data set for machine learning. The data is inspected and cleaned. Independent and dependent
variables are declared using NumPy and later split into training and testing sets in the ratio of 3:1.
Feature scaling is later done and the data fit the training set. The model is tested using the testing
data set and the classifier feature importance analyzed as shown in Figure 3 to know the
contribution and essence of each parameter in the training process.
Figure 3: Feature importance
Dash Application
The glance view of all parameters on the dash application is as shown in Figure 4 where real-time
data per child is visualized. Figure 5 shows the emergency classifications and top 10 latest
children with their respective data records using the simulated data.

Figure 5: Plotly dash web application processing and visualizing data with emergency
classes as inferences.
The Dash application ran in near real-time with auto-refresh. Any new data saved in the database
is analyzed in real-time and classified as either emergency (class 0), no emergency (class 1), and
moderate emergency (class 2). The children's IDs alongside their emergency classes are tabulated
on a table for medics to plan the emergency cases. The trained model used Body temperature,
oxygen concentration, heart rate, age, systole, and diastole as features. The three classes represent
the emergency levels.
Top to latest children patients attending at that instance is displayed in real-time with
functionality to retrieve historical children data. Body temperature and heart rate were the most
essential features as seen in the feature importance score. The application is responsive on all
platforms including mobile phones.
5. RESULTS
After the analysis of the data collected from the hospital records, it indicated that there were36
emergency cases, 21 no emergency cases, and 15 moderate cases. The above analysis was done
with the assistance of medics, wheretemperature was given the first priory, followed by oxygen
levels and heartrate, and lastly the blood pressure. Blood pressure was given the least importance
in the analysis because, rarely do children suffer from blood pressure related conditions.
In relation to both expert views and pediatric chart values, the table 2 below, indicates that the
model displayed the following number of records after it was tested with the testing data from the
hospitals.

The trained algorithm was saved and used in a dash application used to classify the children's
emergency status.
6. DISCUSSION
In a collection of 72 records for testing the model, the model was in a position to produce 100%
accuracy, in displaying the exact records of moderate status children, which is a total of 21 out of
21 records, 94% accuracy in displaying the exact records of emergencystatus children, which is a
total of 34 out of 36 records, and it was able to display the exact records of moderate data that is
15 out of 15 records, though the two emergency status records were classified under moderate.
This can be improved by increasing the number of datasets when training the model and would
result into a more reliable model to assist in pediatric section. This is mainly for arranging the
pediatric children whose emergency status, cannot be viewed physically.
Several machine learning algorithms such as SVM, Decision tress and random forest classifiers
were used to determine the best to be used in the model implementation, but the most effective
one, was the random forest classifier since it was able to deal with vitals that do not have a big
feature importance in the classification of children such as the blood pressure
7. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK
The model had a 97% accuracy level, after it was tested with 72 records from a hospital where
out of 21 non-emergency records, it displayed all the 21 records, out of 36 emergency records, it
displayed 34 records and out of 15 moderate, it added two emergency records to the group.
To further this work, more data should be used to further train the model, and raise the accuracy
to 100%. Also, Exploration of Bluetooth range and other architecture should be done to open new
ways of covering other age groups and utilize other body parameters. In addition, the
implementation of an alert system on this work is vital to alert pediatricians when attending to
12. Advanced Medical Sciences: An International Journal (AMS) Vol 8, No.1/2/3, August 2021
12
multiple patients. Hence future work should focus on alert systems. Time spent with each patient
can also be explored to unfold the quality of service intelligence from the data collected.
