Towards an AI-based Application to Support Lab Results Comprehension

Abstract

The purpose of this project is to create an application for users to view medical information and suggest accurate implications based on their medical results. This project is currently in the researching and gathering data phase. In our literary analysis we have found that through great medical advancements people in the U.S are living longer. We also found that in the U.S, most adults have more than one chronic condition, the majority being elderly. Although they can seek treatment at a hospital, for many of these chronic illnesses the symptoms can be managed or lessened from home without constant doctor visits. For this reason, medical facilities often make use of patient portals so that patients may easily view their results and make more informed health decisions from home. Despite the benefits, these patient portals are not seeing much usage by the target audience: elderly patients with chronic conditions. The main reason for this is that many patients do not find these portals user friendly. Our goal is to make a portal better suited for this target audience so that they are able to view their medical information and as a result make informed health decisions from the home.
