    Sammanfattning : Health empowerment, the idea to enable people to assume more control over their health decisions, has been a buzzword in health care organisation and has recently received even more attention through the popularisation of mobile health (mHealth) apps. One form of mHealth are self-testing apps, which offer users to test themselves for medical conditions as severe as dementia and Parkinson’s disease. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Using Mobile Health Technology to Support Health-related Quality of Life : From the Perspective of Older Adults with Cognitive Impairment

    Sammanfattning : Healthcare is an important and high cost sector that involves many decision-making tasks based on the analysis of data, from its primary activities up till management itself. A technology that can be useful in an environment as data-intensive as healthcare is machine learning. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Developing digital support for learning and diagnostic reasoning in clinical practice

    Författare :Chunli Yan; Helena Lindgren; Juan Carlos Nieves; Lars-Erik Janlert; Franziska Klügl; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Clinical decision-support systems; knowledge representation; possibilistic logic; multi-agent systems; formal argumentation; ontology; automated decision making; inquiry dialogue; end-user development; continuing medical education; dementia;

    Sammanfattning : The two main purposes of clinical decision-support systems (CDSSs) are to provide healthcare professionals decision-making support based on evidence-based medical knowledge, and a continuing medical education. This thesis focuses on both purposes and shows how fundamental theory in the field of artificial intelligence can be developed, adapted and implemented in a CDSS for supporting learning and diagnostic reasoning in clinical practice.
