Applied aspects of data mining for decision support at the regional health system

Abstract

Abstract The article presents the results of research of Data Mining methods with Microsoft SQL Server. Microsoft Clustering algorithm was used for improving the effectiveness of medical prevention and treatment in a cohort of patients with arterial hypertension. There are rationales for monitoring of cardiovascular risk and desire to correct the risk with Data Mining at medical decision support systems. Authors used medical and sociological monitoring data from regional clinical hospital. The segmentation of arterial hypertension patients was performed using Microsoft Clustering algorithm. As a result, a quantitative assessment of the population profile for patients with arterial hypertension was obtained. The authors presented diagrams and profiles of clusters. They were compared. The developed approach is applied for decision support at regional health information management system for reduce of cardiovascular risk.
