1 TARIFF DETECTING RHEUMATIC HEART DISEASE USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE A MEDICAL DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM AND ITS WORKING METHOD The technical field to which the invention relates: The invention provides real-time electrocardiogram (ECG) measurements from three extremities. The image is displayed on the screen and after a 10-second measurement, rheumatic heart disease is detected. Detecting disease (RDD) or a healthy state is done using deep learning-based methods. A convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm extracts features from ECG signals to identify pathologies. It determines whether or not it is present, and simultaneously displays patient information while the ECG signal is shown. The diagnostic results are also displayed on the screen, and the measurements are stored and 10 The ECG signal, which can be transferred to digital media via USB connection, is a diagnostic tool. RKH is a medical diagnosis determined using artificial intelligence (AI). It relates to the system and its working method. State of the art: Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is an immune system disorder that usually occurs in young people, around 15 years of age. It is a heart disease originating from the respiratory system. Diagnosis is usually made when symptoms become apparent. that is, the patient's heart sounds are heard or certain signs of heart failure appear. The diagnosis is made upon the onset of symptoms. However, diagnosis is often delayed in this process, and the disease... More serious complications occur in the advanced stages. The current standard diagnosis... Although echocardiography (ECHO) is the method, most patients have an asymptomatic course. 20 Because of this, this test is usually done when the disease has reached advanced stages. Furthermore, the fact that ECHO is not always accessible and requires expertise makes diagnosis difficult. These are other factors that complicate the process.
