Abstract: The current evolutionary usage of data mining techniques can be imparted for the development of medical applications to analyse the health metric. The web-based decision support framework proposed in this work would provide the pre-guidance report based on the decision generated by Bayesian network analysis over the disease dataset. The report is generated in adherence to the mined disease patterns over the patient's non-medical and medical factors which are obtained from the past medical records and predict the possibility of getting the disease for the given similar health metrics. The Bayesian model builds a decision model by analysing the casual intervention effects of the non-medical and medical factors of each individual. The decision model would generate a pre-guidance health report based on the analysed probabilistic chances of getting the heart disorder. The predicted report is a prognostic analysis of the health metric of the individual and suspects their possibility of getting affected by heart disease.
Keywords: Bayesian networks; disease pattern analysis; past-clinician heart disease data; e-healthcare; electronic healthcare.
