Why is it important?
The system provides recommendations to patients such as heart diseases patients in relation to the necessity of medical tests taken on a daily basis. The research is conducted with an aim at improving the quality of clinical evidenced-based decisions made by medical practitioners to help reduce the financial and timing cost taken by patients.
Perspectives
The proposed system yields reasonably good recommendation accuracy and can effectively reduce the workload required in medical tests for the patients. We believe that this system is promising in risk assessment and management associated with heart failure and other similar diseases.
