Towards Developing Knowledge Management System Framework for managing Chronic Diseases Based on Service Oriented Architecture
Abstract
Chronic diseases are type of illnesses that require a continuous monitoring by physicians in order to keep the condition of the patient at the appropriate level. This requires to keep the parameters that have a higher impact on the end results to be within the allowed threshold. In this research a knowledge based system ( KBS ) is created and then integrated with the electronic health records database ( EHR ). This is used in order to create a system that is robust and able to predict the condition of any patient based on a certain number of factors that are usually defined by the health authorities. In order to create a model that able to predict a number of chronic diseases, then service oriented architecture ( SOA ) is used to accommodate these services. This present work deals with creating KBS that participate in the prediction process for diabetes patients.
