    Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.

  • 2

    Early detection and management of RHD through benzathine penicillin G injections can significantly reduce disease progression.

  • 3

    Echocardiography is the gold standard for RHD diagnosis, but its use is limited in resource-poor settings.

  • 4

    This study aims to develop a machine learning model using ECG data to improve RHD detection in resource-limited cardiac settings.

  • 5

    Combining time- and frequency-domain features with CNN aims to enhance RHD detection accuracy and improve patient outcomes.
