The document describes an AI-based framework for clinical decision support. It proposes a hybrid system that integrates machine learning and knowledge-based reasoning. The framework includes components like a patient records database, prescription protocols, and a drug interaction registry. It experimentally compares the performance of learning-based and knowledge-based systems on a sleep aid recommendation task. The learning system uses AdaBoost to handle missing patient data. The framework aims to offer accurate medical decision support by combining the strengths of machine learning and ontological reasoning approaches.

HEALTHCARE WHITEPAPER BY ARTIVATIC DATA LABS PRIVATE LIMITED
Healthcare in today’s world has not changed in terms of method of diagnosis where the doctor analyses the patient’s history along with historical records of symptoms to their diagnosis, keeping in mind the current practices involved in the treatment. Usually going through multiple tests and a process of elimination, the process is hectic and more often than not prone to human error. It is not possible for any doctor to analyse every bit of data available in relation to a patient which may include the genetic code etc. Nor is it possible for them to keep track of all historical cases where similar symptoms may have been shown. This is where the application of AI and ML are crucial. They streamline the process and reduce human error while considering all the data available. With the use of AI, the doctor could automatically get recommendations on what kind of diseases could be causing the symptoms shown. Or the patients could be suggested the correct doctor based on their personal preferences and symptoms shown.

A major challenge facing healthcare organizations (hospitals, medical centers) is
the provision of quality services at affordable costs. Quality service implies diagnosing
patients correctly and administering treatments that are effective. Poor clinical decisions
can lead to disastrous consequences which are therefore unacceptable. Hospitals must
also minimize the cost of clinical tests. They can achieve these results by employing
appropriate computer-based information and/or decision support systems.
Most hospitals today employ some sort of hospital information systems to manage
their healthcare or patient data.
These systems are designed to support patient billing, inventory management and generation of simple statistics. Some hospitals use decision support systems, but they are largely limited. Clinical decisions are often made based on doctors’ intuition and experience rather than on the knowledge rich data hidden in the database.
This practice leads to unwanted biases, errors and excessive medical costs which affects the quality of service provided to patients.

Quality and cost improvements require the intelligent use of financial and clinical data coupled with education for multi-disciplinary teams who are driving process improvements. Once a data warehouse is established, healthcare organizations need to set up multi-disciplinary clinical, financial, and IT specialist teams to make the best use of the data. Sometimes, financial involvement is minimized or even excluded for a number of reasons that can turn out to be counterproductive. However, including financial measurements and participation up front can help enhance the recognized value and sustainability of quality improvement or waste reduction efforts. the In this session you will learn keys to success and real-life examples of linking clinical, financial and patient satisfaction data via multi-disciplinary teams that produce impressive results.

AN IMPROVED MODEL FOR CLINICAL DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEMijaia
Misguided information in health care has caused much havoc that have led to the death of millions of people as a result of misclassification, and inconsistent health care records; hence the objective of this paper is to develop an improved clinical decision support system. This system incorporated hybrid system
of non-knowledge based and knowledge based decision support system for the diagnosis of diseases and proper health care delivery records using prostate cancer and diabetes datasets to train and validate the model. The min-max method was adopted in normalizing the datasets, while genetic algorithm was
deployed in initiating the training weights of the MLP. The result obtained in this paper yielded a classification accuracy of 98%, sensitivity of 0.98 and specificity of 100 for prostate cancer and accuracy of 94%, sensitivity of 0.94 and specificity of 0.67 for diabetes.

Chapter 9: Patient Safety, Quality and Value
Harry Burke MD PhD
Learning Objectives
After reviewing the presentation, viewers should be able to:
Define safety, quality, near miss, and unsafe action
List the safety and quality factors that justified the clinical implementation of electronic health record systems
Discuss three reasons why the electronic health record is central to safety, quality, and value
List three issues that clinicians have with the current electronic health record systems and discuss how these problems affect safety and quality
Describe a specific electronic patient safety measurement system and a specific electronic safety reporting system
Describe two integrated clinical decision support systems and discuss how they may improve safety and quality
Patient Safety-Related Definitions
Safety: minimization of the risk and occurrence of patient harm events
Harm: inappropriate or avoidable psychological or physical injury to patient and/or family
Adverse Events: “an injury resulting from a medical intervention”
Preventable Adverse Events: “errors that result in an adverse event that are preventable”
Overuse: “the delivery of care of little or no value” e.g. widespread use of antibiotics for viral infections
Underuse: “the failure to deliver appropriate care” e.g. vaccines or cancer screening
Misuse: “the use of certain services in situations where they are not clinically indicated” e.g. MRI for routine low back pain
Introduction
Medical errors are unfortunately common in healthcare, in spite of sophisticated hospitals and well trained clinicians
Often it is breakdowns in protocol and communication, and not individual errors
Technology has potential to reduce medical errors (particularly medication errors) by:
Improving communication between physicians and patients
Improving clinical decision support
Decreasing diagnostic errors
Unfortunately, technology also has the potential to create unique new errors that cause harm
Medical Errors
Errors can be related to diagnosis, treatment and preventive care. Furthermore, medical errors can be errors of commission or omission and fortunately not all errors result in an injury and not all medical errors are preventable
Most common outpatient errors:
Prescribing medications
Getting the correct laboratory test for the correct patient at the correct time
Filing system errors
Dispensing medications and responding to abnormal test results
5
While many would argue that treatment errors are the most common category of medical errors, diagnostic errors accounted for the largest percentage of malpractice claims, surpassing treatment errors in one study
Diagnostic errors can result from missed, wrong or delayed diagnoses and are more likely in the outpatient setting. This is somewhat surprising given the fact that US physicians tend to practice “defensive medicine”
Over-diagnosis may also cause medical errors but this has been less ...

Unwanted variation in care is a challenge to high-quality care delivery in any healthcare system. Across the Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMSC) continuum, there is wide variation in care delivery for which best practices have demonstrated opportunities to minimize that variation through clinical standards (evidence-based pathways, protocols, and guidelines for care). A model of development of clinical standards is delineated and tools used in that process are described. Implementation strategies for improving utilization are also described with clinical decision support tools being a promising strategy for accelerating uptake of guidelines. Critical to implementing guidelines through improvement science strategies is the ability to make iterative improvements directed by data and analytics. The progression of sophistication in a system's informatics and analytics capabilities is driven by a maturity of data reporting to analytics that drives decision support for implementing clinical standards. Integration of financial data into the clinical standards processes and analytics platforms is necessary to determine value of the work. Within the EMSC continuum, a number of initiatives will drive national clinical standards activities and are fueled by current pockets of successful development and implementation activities within organizations and systems.

Proposed Model for Chest Disease Prediction using Data Analyticsvivatechijri
Chest diseases if not properly diagnosed in early stages can be fatal. Because of lack of skilled
knowledge or experiences of real life practitioners, many a times one chest disease is wrongly diagnosed for the
other, which leads to wrong treatment. Due to this the actual disease keeps on growing and become fatal. For
example, muscular chest pains can be treated for the heart disease or COPD is treated for Asthma. Early
prediction of chest disease is crucial but is not an easy task. Consequently, the computer based prediction system
for chest disease may play a significant role as a pre-stage detection to take proper actions with a view to recover
from it. However the choice of the proper Data Mining classification method can effectively predict the early
stage of the disease for being cured from it. In this paper, the three mostly used classification techniques such as
support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbour (KNN) and artificial neural network (ANN) have been studied
with a view to evaluating them for chest disease prediction.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

16. A FRAMEWORK FOR AI-BASED
CLINICAL DECISION SUPPORT
Example
Enable medical decision making in the presence of partial information
17. AI-Based Clinical Decision Support Framework
Introduction
Medical decision support systems (MDSS) map patient
information to promising diagnostic and treatment paths.
Knowledge-based systems can suffer a significant loss of
performance when patient data is incomplete:
Patients omit details
Access restrictions prevent viewing of remote medical records
The output of learning-based systems cannot be easily explained.

Patient records drawn from the Center for Disease Control (CDC).
Dataset: Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS)
telephone survey for 2010.
BRFSS dataset contains:
Respondent information: age, race, sex, and geographic location.
Common medical conditions: cancer, asthma, mental illness,
and diabetes.
Behavioral risk factors: alcohol consumption, drug use, and sleep
deprivation.
BRFSS: 450,000 individuals.
Relational database.
22. AI-Based Clinical Decision Support Framework
Prescription
Protocol
Identify a subset of sleep aids and apply the Mayo clinic sleep aid
prescription protocol to identify the conditions under which each drug
should be prescribed.
Inference Rules examples:
1. drug-to-drug interaction rule:
If a patient is currently taking an existing drug D1, and D1 cannot
be given with drug D2, then the patient cannot be given drug
D2.
2. drug-to-condition interaction rule:
If a patient has some existing medical condition C, and a drug D
has contraindication to the condition C, then the patient cannot be
given drug D.
3. drug-to-disease interaction rule:
If a patient has a disease E, and a drug D has contraindication to
the disease E, then the patient cannot be given drug D.

Imputation
Bayesian multiple imputation
Assume a particular joint probability model over the feature values.
a1, a2, …, an , P(a1 = x, a2 = y, …, an = z) = prop., etc
Draw imputed datasets from the posterior distribution of the missing data
given the observed data.
Make multiple imputed datasets, then take the average of the imputed
values.
a1 a2 … an
id1 x y zz
id2 x yyy z
id3 xx yy zzzz
a1 a2 … an
id1 x y ?
id2 ? ? z
id3 ? yy zzzz
24. AI-Based Clinical Decision Support Framework
Experimental Comparison
Patients who should be given sleep aids were labeled as ‘positive’
exemplars and those who should not as ‘negative’ exemplars.
When a system labeled a patient correctly in response to a query, a
‘true positive’ (tp) or ‘true negative’ (tn) was produced.
Otherwise, a ‘false positive’ (fp) or ‘false negative’ (fn) was
produced.
The results were evaluated in terms of:
Sensitivity: rate of positive exemplars labeled as positive.
Specificity: rate of negative exemplars labeled as negative.
Balanced accuracy: simple average of specificity and sensitivity.
25. AI-Based Clinical Decision Support Framework
Experimental Comparison – Learning-based System
Evaluate the impact of missing information on the performance of the
learning-based system by removing known values from the patient
records.
Defined e as the average number of attribute values removed from a
patient’s record.
For each value of e, train an AdaBoost-based classifier using 50 sets of
5000 exemplars from the partially-missing data.
26. AI-Based Clinical Decision Support Framework
Experimental Comparison – Learning-based System
AdaBoost
AdaBoost helps you combine multiple “weak classifiers” into a single
“strong classifier”.
A weak classifier is simply a classifier that performs poorly, but performs
better than random guessing (accuracy is greater than 50%).
AdaBoost can be applied to any classification algorithm.
What does AdaBoost do for you?
1. It helps you choose the training set for each new classifier that you train based
on the results of the previous classifier.
2. It determines how much weight should be given to each classifier’s proposed
answer when combining the results.
27. AI-Based Clinical Decision Support Framework
Experimental Comparison – Learning-based System
AdaBoost
Training Set Selection:
Each weak classifier should be trained on a random subset of the total training set.
The subsets can overlap.
AdaBoost assigns a “weight” to each training example, which determines the probability that
each example should appear in the training set.
After training a classifier, AdaBoost increases the weight on the misclassified examples so
that these examples will make up a larger part of the next classifiers training set, and
hopefully the next classifier trained will perform better on them.
Classifier Output Weights:
After each classifier is trained, the classifier’s weight is calculated based on its accuracy.
A classifier with 50% accuracy is given a weight of zero
A classifier with less than 50% accuracy is given negative weight.
28. AI-Based Clinical Decision Support Framework

Formal Definition:
The equation for the final classifier:

by looking at the sign of this sum
29. AI-Based Clinical Decision Support Framework
Experimental Comparison – Learning-based System
AdaBoost
Formal Definition:
Weight of classifier:
The first classifier (t = 1) is trained with equal probability given to all training
examples.
After it’s trained, we compute the output weight (alpha) for that classifier.
error rate (e_t ) is just the number of misclassifications over the training set divided
by the training set size.
30. AI-Based Clinical Decision Support Framework
Experimental Comparison – Learning-based System
AdaBoost
Formal Definition:
Updating examples’ weights:
If the predicted and actual output agree, y * h(x) will always be +1 (1*1 or -1*-1)
If they disagree, y * h(x) will be negative.
Misclassifications by a classifier with a positive alpha will cause this training example to be given a
larger weight. And vice versa.
If a weak classifier misclassifies an input, we don’t take that as seriously as a strong classifier’s
mistake.

33. AI-Based Clinical Decision Support Framework
Conclusion
This approach of Integrating machine learning with ontological
reasoning makes use of the inherent advantages of both approaches in
order to offer the required accuracy for the medical domain.
This approach supports interoperability between different health
information systems. A decision making process should use all relevant
data from many distributed systems instead of a single data source to
maximize its effectiveness.
This approach provides a framework that is generic enough to be used
in other medical applications.
Editor's Notes
http://www.jmir.org/2001/2/e20/
These rules were applied to all records to create a semantic knowledge-store of the BRFSS dataset.
1. The classifier weight grows exponentially as the error approaches 0. Better classifiers are given exponentially more weight.
2. The classifier weight is zero if the error rate is 0.5. A classifier with 50% accuracy is no better than random guessing, so we ignore it.
3. The classifier weight grows exponentially negative as the error approaches 1. We give a negative weight to classifiers with worse worse than 50% accuracy. “Whatever that classifier says, do the opposite!”.
The figure provides a performance comparison between the hybrid model and the knowledge-based model for the four highest levels of missingness (ǫ).
We note that the hybrid decision making model experiences slight performance degradation in balanced accuracy as ǫ increases (an increase of 0.5 in ǫ causes a decrease in performance of less than 1 percentage point).
However, the performance of the knowledge-based decision support model degrades substantially for the same range of ǫ (an increase of 0.5 in ǫ causes a decrease in performance of roughly 4 percentage points). Overall the hybrid model achieves excellent balanced accuracy, meaning that its recommendations for medical decision making are effective.
