The Development of Medical Diagnostic System Based on Integration of Traditional and Eastern Medicines
In
this article is described approach of producing of medical diagnostic expert
system which based on integration of traditional western and eastern medicines.
If necessary, to clarify the probable diagnoses, the doctor should receive from
the patient additional information about a human personal condition (medical
history, lifestyle, some laboratory tests, etc.). In determining the actual
disease present, there arises the actual task of choosing the most preferred
atomic diagnostic test (ADT) at each step of the diagnostic process. One of the
main directions of this work is research of informativity questionnaire for
patients, where such as questions with binary answers Yes or No and questions
for determination of human innate nature type. To increase diagnostic precision
there has been developed a program method of diagnostic criterion
(informativeness) using Bayes procedure and module of analysis based on nominal
entropies. One variant of the diagnostic test based on self-assessed health
status suggests determining a patient’s constitution due to which it is
possible to specify the diagnosis, avoiding diseases that are not typical for a
certain constitutional type. Application of the diagnostic model offered
motivates a patient to develop a healthy life, adhere to scientifically
grounded system of disease prevention, according to the causes of diseases of
the given constitution type. Index Terms – Diagnostic method, health
