Abstract

In this paper we present a tool for the intelligent retrieval of past cases to support Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus patients therapy revision. This tool was designed for assisting physicians during periodical monitoring visits. Each case is represented through i) a collection of features that describe the patient's clinical state at the decision time, i.e. the control visit, ii) the decision taken in terms of therapy revision and iii) the outcome obtained on the metabolic control during the following monitoring period. A new case is first classified into a protypical monitoring situation, and then similar cases are retrieved and shown to the user. This tool is fully integrated in a Web-based distributed system for Diabetes Management, developed within in the EU project T-IDDM.
