Multimodal Assessment of Mental Workload During Automated Vehicle Remote Assistance: Modeling of Eye-Tracking-Related, Skin Conductance, and Cardiovascular Indicators by Fabian Walocha, Andreas Schrank, Hoai Phuong Nguyen, Klas Ihme

“…Therefore, we assessed impact of elevated mental workload during HAV remote assistance in a controlled environment in a user study (N = 37) with the goal of identifying cues to differentiate workload levels based on eye-tracking-related, skin conductance, and cardiovascular indicators. The results provide evidence that (A) elevated workload induced via a secondary task depreciates performance, and (B) we can identify workload levels person-independently as differences in tonic skin conductance (F(2,72) = 24.538, <i>p</i> < 0.001, partial η² = 0.405) and pupil dilation (F(2,72) = 13.872, <i>p</i> < 0.001, partial η² = 0.278), resulting in a classification accuracy of 58% in a three-class classification task. …”

Cost of primary care approaches for hypertension management and risk-based cardiovascular disease prevention in Bangladesh: a HEARTS costing tool application by Andrew E Moran, Sohel Reza Choudhury, Deliana Kostova, Muhammad Jami Husain, Mohammad Sabbir Haider, Mahfuzur Rahman Bhuiyan, Renesa Tarannum, Shamim Jubayer

“…Objective To estimate the costs of scaling up the HEARTS pilot project for hypertension management and risk-based cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention at the full population level in the four subdistricts (upazilas) in Bangladesh.Settings Two intervention scenarios in subdistrict health complexes: hypertension management only, and risk-based integrated hypertension, diabetes, and cholesterol management.Design Data obtained during July–August 2020 from subdistrict health complexes on the cost of medications, diagnostic materials, staff salaries and other programme components.Methods Programme costs were assessed using the HEARTS costing tool, an Excel-based instrument to collect, track and evaluate the incremental annual costs of implementing the HEARTS programme from the health system perspective.Primary and secondary outcome measures Programme cost, provider time.Results The total annual cost for the hypertension control programme was estimated at US$3.2 million, equivalent to US$2.8 per capita or US$8.9 per eligible patient. …”
