Abstract: | This research developed an Explainable AI (XAI) based Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) to assist practitioners during anamnesis by classifying patient diagnoses. Utilizing Electronic Health Records (EHR) data, we designed a machine learning (ML) model focusing on pain location and type, reduced variables from 299 to 51, and trained classifiers. The multi-label classifier model, with high precision, was most effective. Explainable outputs were evaluated by practitioners, ensuring transparency and aiding decision-making. This study enhances standardized patient care, reduces consultation times, and minimizes misdiagnoses, demonstrating the integration of ML in clinical settings for improved healthcare outcomes. |
