Clinical decision support

Clinical Decision Support systems refer to as a specific type of algorithms designed to assist healthcare professionals in making clinical decisions. CDS systems leverage patient-specific data which may be combined with medical knowledge, and best practices to provide timely and relevant information at the point of care. These systems can perform various functions, including: patient stratification for example for treatment recommendation, diagnosis anticipation, adverse event prevention, optimisation of patient pathways. Many AI methods may be involved in this field as NLP for medical report analysis, statistical modelling and learning to cluster patients and mimic the observations up to reinforcement learning to help for pathway optimisation.
