Description:
Traditional triage tools hospitals use face limitations in handling the increasing number of patients and analyzing complex data. These ongoing challenges in patient triage necessitate the development of more effective prediction methods. This study aims to use machine learning (ML) to create an automated triage model for remote patients in telemedicine systems, providing more accurate health services and health assessments of urgent cases in real time. A comparative study was conducted to ascertain how well different supervised machine learning models, like SVM, RF, DT, LR, NB, and KNN, evaluated patient triage outcomes for outpatient care. Hence, data from diverse, rapidly generated sources is crucial for informed patient triage decisions. Collected through IoMT-enabled sensors, it includes sensory data (ECG, blood pressure, SpO2, temperature) and non-sensory text frame measurements. The study examined six supervised machine learning algorithms. These models were trained using patient medical data and validated by assessing their performance. Supervised ML technology was implemented in Hadoop and Spark environments to identify individuals with chronic illnesses accurately. A dataset of 55,680 patient records was used to evaluate methods and determine the best match for disease prediction. The simulation results highlight the powerful integration of ML in telemedicine to analyze data from heterogeneous IoMT devices, indicating that the Decision Tree (DT) algorithm outperformed the other five machine learning algorithms by 93.50% in terms of performance and accuracy metrics. This result provides practical insights …

Description:
Current environmental conditions and human lifestyles have resulted in the emergence of numerous diseases. The medical field generates an enormous amount of new data each year for remote monitoring of patients. Due to increased data growth in the medical and healthcare industries, accurate medical data analysis has been advantageous to early patient care. However, physicians often face challenges in accurately diagnosing diseases in patients far from hospitals. Therefore, utilizing remote patient systems (telemedicine systems) due to the complexities associated with their chronic conditions. On the other hand, predicting illness is also a challenging task. Thus, data extracted from heterogeneous, fast-flowing, and reliable sources is crucial for decision-making and disease prediction. This research paper aims to utilize supervised Machine Learning (ML) techniques to predict chronic diseases such as heart and hypertension based on the patient’s features or symptoms by analyzing patient data collected by sensors and sources enabled by the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). Supervised ML technology in Hadoop and Spark environments is employed to guarantee that this classification accurately identifies individuals with chronic illnesses. The methods are evaluated using 55,680 patient records to discover the proper match between the data set and the final disease-predicted result. The results demonstrate that the proposed procedure employing the Decision Tree (DT) algorithm is 94% accurate, and DT outperforms the other four ML algorithms. This includes the Support Vector Machine (SVM), a Naive Bayes (NB) model, Random …

Blended learning is the ideal solution for training, especially for companies

To prove this assumption, we must first understand: what is blended learning, and how can training programs be designed according to this model?

Blended learning, also known as hybrid learning, is an educational approach that combines online learning materials and opportunities for online interaction with traditional classroom methods that involve in-person attendance.

How do you design a blended learning program?

Define objectives

As with any type of training, you should start by defining your goals. This can be done by answering the following questions: What is the purpose of the training or teaching? What is the final objective? This not only provides clarity for learners (students or trainees), but also enables you to create a more focused program that equips them with the skills and knowledge they need.

Make it interactive

Blended learning courses can be as interactive as you want. It is up to you to decide how much learning will take place online and how much will be self-directed. For example, you can assign a task for learners to complete before a live online session. During the webinar, you can then discuss the task and share solutions.

Assessments

You will need to monitor and evaluate learners’ progress at the end of the program. This will give you insight into how successful the training has been and whether there are any knowledge gaps that need to be addressed. Using e-learning platforms, you can easily assign quizzes or assessments to be completed at the end of the training.

Why is blended learning ideal for corporate training?

Increased return on investment (ROI)

Blended learning reduces the costs associated with face-to-face training, such as travel, accommodation, and printed materials. It also offers the added advantage of scaling training programs, making it easier to train globally.

Flexibility at work

In a corporate environment, it is important to balance training with regular workloads. Blended learning models combine training and online assignments, allowing learners to study at their convenience. This gives them more control over their learning and development.

Enhanced engagement

Companies can use various online learning methods, such as webinars, to record training sessions for later use. If you have access to a Learning Management System (LMS), you can incorporate gamification, certifications, and rewards, adding a sense of friendly competition and improving learner engagement.

Why should a university professor prepare a course implementation plan? And how should course lectures be organized?

Preparing course plans is considered a key factor for educational success, as curriculum design provides both the instructor and the student with a “roadmap” that guides them throughout the teaching and learning journey. This roadmap not only highlights the key milestones of the journey but also connects them as part of a structured educational development process. Its strength lies in organizing all planned activities according to a clear timeline.

The course plan clarifies that the journey begins with announcing the course objectives and its intended learning outcomes. It then progresses through a sequence of lectures, where each session is treated as a محطة (milestone), detailing the topics covered, teaching methods used, and whether there will be an assessment (exam) or not.

At the end of the journey, both the instructor and the students reflect on what has been accomplished. This initiates the evaluation process, identifying which learning outcomes have been achieved. This reflection allows for constructive feedback and recommendations, which can later be incorporated into future curriculum revisions—this is what is known as improvement planning.

The core component of any curriculum is the clear definition of its learning objectives or outcomes. Designing courses according to international educational standards provides both professors and students with the following advantages:

During the course:

  • Defining the course objectives and learning outcomes (What will students learn?)
  • Helping students understand the importance of the course and its future relevance
  • Creating a structured “roadmap” where each lecture represents a محطة with clearly defined topics and teaching methods
  • Allowing students to know the academic content of each lecture in advance
  • Enabling the instructor to track progress and completion rates
  • Selecting appropriate teaching strategies and suitable instructional methods
  • Developing and scheduling assessment plans appropriately
  • Organizing lectures and exams within a clear timeline
  • Focusing students’ efforts on meaningful tasks
  • Keeping department heads, deans, and academic supervisors fully informed about the teaching process and schedule
  • Enhancing the quality of higher education in line with global standards

After the course:

  • Identifying time periods where challenges occurred (to avoid them in the future)
  • Measuring the effectiveness of knowledge delivery (whether learning objectives were achieved)
  • Documenting the process by maintaining a comprehensive course record

At Tarqia Company, we provide high-quality training for lecturers, teachers, and academic staff to guide them in designing course plans that meet international standards.
