On the Algorithm of the Medical Diagnostic Decision Support System under the Mobile Platform
ABSTRACT
A mobile platform usually refers to a complete platform that provides a reference design, a hardware chipset and upper communication protocols and supporting software and development tools. The downstream vendors can design and manufacture appropriate mobile products in a shorter time as required. The app developers mustn’t pay attention to the content of platform hardware, but systematically understand the types of mobile devices, supporting software and appropriate development tools in mobile platform. The key for the medical experts to deal with the patients is decisionmaking. They make the decisions in diagnosing the patient’s status, adjusting the therapeutic plan and monitoring the changing disease status. In recent decades, a series of methods and tools have been developed to assist the clinicians for decision. Typically, these tools and methods are not intended to substitute the human’s job, but used for assistant and supportive purpose. The doctors, healthcare professionals and other healthcare staffs have been being aware of the importance of these algorithms and techniques in order to support the decision-making process as the information and communication technology has become increasingly important for the infrastructure construction in healthcare organizations.
