Data mining pbkp_redictive models for pervasive intelligent decision support in intensive care medicine

Abstract:

The introduction of an Intelligent Decision Support System (IDSS) in a critical area like the Intensive Medicine is a complex and difficult process. In this area, their professionals don't have much time to document the cases, because the patient direct care is always first. With the objective to reduce significantly the manual records and, enabling, at the same time, the possibility of developing an IDSS which can help in the decision making process, all data acquisition process and knowledge discovery in database phases were automated. From the data acquisition to the knowledge discovering, the entire process is autonomous and executed in real-time. On-line induced data mining models were used to pbkp_redict organ failure and outcome. Preliminary results obtained with a limited population of patients showed that this approach can be applied successfully.
