Clinical Decision Support System For Pediatrician Focusing On Cardiovascular Diseases

Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) is a system designed to directly aid clinical
decision making by compiling and diagnosing information obtained from the data
inserted by users. The system will basically analyze the symptoms entered by the users
and then compare the symptoms in the database and finally produce the possible diseases
based on the symptoms' matched found in the database. This system is practically
important to the pediatricians in order to assist them in justifying the diseases suffered by
their patients. Because there are a lot of pediatricians' fields in Malaysia, the project's
scope had been narrowed down to the pediatricians who specialize in Cardiovascular
Diseases. The main objective of this project is to develop a system that able to analyze
Cardiovascular Diseases suffered by patients and generate specific solution to help
pediatrician in decision making. Besides that, by having this system, it is also can
improve the efficiency in analyzing diseases suffered by patients. Compareto the manual
system, the pediatricians might face problems in deciding the diseases suffered by their
patients. However by having this system it can overcome this kind of problem and assist
the pediatrician in making decision by providing solutions. In developing the system,
Rapid Application Development (RAD) methodology is used because it is suitable for the
short period time of project and the Exsys Corvid will be the main software to build the
system.
