Prediction and evaluation of healthy and unhealthy status of COVID-19 patients using wearable device prototype data
Abstract
COVID-19 pandemic seriousness is making the whole world suffer due to inefficient medication and vaccines. The article prediction analysis is carried out with the dataset downloaded from the Application peripheral interface (API) designed explicitly for COVID-19 quarantined patients. The measured data is collected from a wearable device used for quarantined healthy and unhealthy patients. The wearable device provides data of temperature, heart rate, SPO2, blood saturation, and blood pressure timely for alerting the medical authorities and providing a better diagnosis and treatment. The dataset contains 1085 patients with eight features representing 490 COVID-19 infected and 595 standard cases. The work considers different parameters, namely heart rate, temperature, SpO2, bpm parameters, and health status.Furthermore, the real-time data collected can predict the health status of patients as infected and non-infected from measured parameters. The collected dataset uses a random forest classifier with linear and polynomial regression to train and validate COVID-19 patient data. The google colab is an Integral development environment inbuilt with python and Jupyter notebook with scikit-learn version 0.22.1 virtually tested on cloud coding tools. The dataset is trained and tested in 80% and 20% ratio for accuracy evaluation and avoid overfitting in the model. This analysis could help medical authorities and governmental agencies of every country respond timely and reduce the contamination of the disease. • The measured data provide a comprehensive mapping of disease symptoms to predict the health status. They can restrict the virus transmission and take necessary steps to control, mitigate and manage the disease. • Benefits in scientific research with Artificial Intelligence (AI) to tackle the hurdles in analyzing disease diagnosis. • The diagnosis results of disease symptoms can identify the severity of the patient to monitor and manage the difficulties for the outbreak caused.
