Improved treatment of high blood pressure

High blood pressure kills more people than all infectious diseases combined – nearly 10 million people a year.  Treatment is low-cost, simple, and can be done by existing health programs, with funding leveraged from governments and other source

Solar Power for Raspberry Pi

https://www.voltaicsystems.com/blog/powering-a-raspberry-pi-from-solar-power/

This post will walk you though how to protect your Raspberry Pi while powering it from a solar-powered system, and provide some tips for reducing the power consumption. Our desired goal is to power the Raspberry Pi with only a small solar panel (which you’ll see is not easy considering how power-hungry these boards are), so we’ll provide you with the know-how and tools necessary to reduce the power consumption.

Overview:


  1. How to protect the Raspberry Pi by safely and autonomously turning it off
  2. How to cycle the Raspberry Pi on and off to reduce power consumption
  3. Third party boards to help manage powering the Pi on and off
  4. How to appropriately size your solar panels to maintain the Pi after you’ve reduced the power consumption

Blood Pressure Under Pressure



Learning to Predict Blood Pressure with Deep Bidirectional LSTM Network. PAPER


Around 3 in 10 deaths globally are caused by cardiovascular diseases (CVD) - diseases of the
heart and blood vessels that can cause heart attacks and stroke. 2 As the leading risk factor
of CVD (Lim et al., 2013), high blood pressure (BP) has been commonly used as the critical
criteria for diagnosing and preventing CVD. High BP, which is also known as hypertension,
normally develops without obvious symptoms at early stage, making it a “silent killer”.
Therefore, accurate and continuous BP monitoring during people’s daily live is extremely
imperative for CVD prevention and diagnosis. In addition, blood pressure variability (BPV)
reflects how a cardiovascular system regularize itself and response to external stimulus, and
is another critical cardiovascular indicator that can only be obtained through continuous
and long-duration BP monitoring.
Current BP measurement devices, e.g., Omron products, are cuff-based and therefore
bulky, discomfort to wear, and only suitable for snapshot measurements. These disadvantages
restrict the use of the cuff-based devices for continuous and frequent BP measurement,
which are essential for nighttime monitoring and precise diagnosis of different CVD symptoms.
Recent advancements in sensing technologies provide a wearable sensor network
solution that can achieve cuffless and continuous BP monitoring (Chan et al., 2007; Zheng
et al., 2014). These new emerged sensing technologies can detect several human physiological
signs through contacting corresponding sensors to the human body. For example,
electrocardiography (ECG) sensor can detect tiny skin impedance variations that arise from
the hearts electrophysiologic pattern during each heart beat; photoplethysmogram (PPG)
sensor can probe blood volume variation inside arteries, and etc. While all these physiological
sensing signals contain enormous information of the functionality and health status of
our cardiovascular system, the data is difficult to mine effectively due to noisy observation,
missing value and varying length. Extensive research efforts have been made to develop
effective models to predict or estimate BP from the sensor output; examples include the
well established physiological modeling method - Pulse transit time model, and the recently
proposed machine learning approach - regression model such as support vector machine,
decision tree and etc
