Paper Title: Smartphone based ischemic heart disease (heart attack) risk prediction using clinical data and data mining approaches, a prototype design

Abstract:

We developed a simple approach to predict risk of developing Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD) (Heart Attack) using smartphone. An Android based prototype software has been developed by integrating clinical data obtained from patients admitted with IHD. The clinical data from 787 patients has been analyzed and correlated with the risk factors like Hypertension, Diabetes, Dyslipidemia (Abnormal cholesterol), Smoking, Family History, Obesity, Stress and existing clinical symptom which may suggest underlying non detected IHD. The data was mined with data mining technology and a score is generated. Risks are classified into low, medium and high for IHD. On comparing and categorizing the patients whose data is obtained for generating the score; we found there is a significant correlation of having a cardiac event when low & high and medium & high category are compared; p=0.0001 and 0.0001 respectively. Our research is to make simple approach to detect the IHD risk and aware the population to get themselves evaluated by a cardiologist to avoid sudden deaths. Currently available tools has some limitations which makes them underutilized by population. Our research product may reduce this limitation and promote risk evaluation on time.
