Identified Problem
Diabetes is common in Singapore, and although many individuals with diabetes are initially free of symptoms, poor management of the condition can lead to serious complications such as stroke, heart attack, kidney failure, blindness, and amputation. There is a need for tools to enhance risk communication and empower patients to make informed decisions about their healthcare.
AI Solution
Predict AI, a three-part AI-enabled solution, is designed to enhance risk communication and empower patients in their healthcare journey. This solution uses AI to provide personalized insights and recommendations for diabetes management.
Key Features
- Social Comparison: The system uses a deep learning framework to retrieve clinically similar patients based on factors like age, ethnicity, and gender for social comparison. This allows patients to see how others with similar profiles are affected by diabetes and the consequences of poor management.
- Medication Recommendations: A deep learning-based medication recommendation system takes into account the patient’s health trajectory, medication history, and potential drug interactions to suggest personalized drug treatments. The system recommends both the name of the drug and the dosage. It also shows patients the potential consequences of stopping medication or changing the dosage.
- Personalized Care Plans: The system combines medication adjustments with lifestyle modifications and personal cognition of risk to create a personalized care plan. This care plan is stored on the patient’s smartphone via a QR code, allowing for easy access and updates based on health progress.
