The Basics of Data Mining in Healthcare An Annotated Bibliography

چکیده

“In this article we propose an approach for a decision support system (DSS) based on Knowledge Discovery from Databases (KDD). In such system, user must be involved throughout the decision-making process. In consequence we propose the integration of a Human–Computer Interaction (HCI) model into the development of DSS process based on KDD. The approach we propose is based on two systems development methods—the Unified Process (UP) from Software Engineering and the U model from HCI. In this article, we describe our combined approach (UP/U) and the way we used it to develop a DSS in a medical field.” Annotation: This is a very long and complex article, primarily about Decision Support Systems (DSS), but it details how they would use data mining to feed the DSS. The article uses many abbreviations and acronyms without always defining them the first time they are used, which can be confusing. For example, they discuss nosocomial infections as “NI” before defining what it was. What is useful about this article is its emphasis on involving the user at all points of the process, from preparing the data for data mining to designing reports from the DSS. Search Strategy: Keyword searching Database: Web of Science (Web of Knowledge) Search String: TS=(“data mining” OR kdd OR “knowledge discovery”) AND TS=(healthcare OR “health care”) Scholarly/Refereed Status: Ulrichs lists this as an academic/scholarly journal and it is refereed.
