Background and Objective: Hypertension is critical risk factor of fatal cardiovascular diseases and multiple organ damage. Early detection of hypertension even at pre-hypertension stage is helpful in preventing the forthcoming complications. Electrocardiogram (ECG) has been attempted to observe the changes in electrical activities of the hearts of hypertensive patients. To automate the ECG assessment in the detection of hypertension, an interpretable hybrid model is proposed in this paper. Methods: The proposed hybrid framework consists of one dimensional - Convolutional Neural Network architecture with four blocks of convolutional layers, maxpooling followed by dropout layers fused with Support Vector Machine classifier in the final layer. The implemented hybrid model is made explainable and interpretable using Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations (LIME) method. The developed hybrid model is trained and tested for patient-wise classification of ECGs using online Physionet datasets and hospital data. Results: The proposed method achieved highest accuracy of 81.81% in patient-wise ECG classification of online datasets, and highest accuracy of 93.33% in patient-wise ECG classification of hospital datasets as normotensive and hypertensive. The visualization of results showed only one normotensive patient's ECG is misclassified (predicted) as hypertensive, with identification of patient number, among the 15 patients (8 normotensive and 7 hypertensive) ECGs tested. In addition, the LIME results demonstrated an explanation to the predictions of hybrid model by highlighting the features and location of ECG waveform responsible for it, thus making the decision of hybrid model more interpretable. Conclusion: Furthermore, our developed system is implemented as an assisting automated software tool called, HANDI (Hypertensive And Normotensive patient Detection with Interpretability) for real-time validation in clinics for early capture of hypertensive and proper monitoring of the patients. |
