Handheld-Based Decision Support
in Trauma Medicine
Blaž Zupan
Faculty of Computer Science, University of LjubljanaBaylor College of Medicine, Houston
Examples ofMedical Decision Support• Probability of recurrence after radical
prostatectomy
• Predicting patient’s long term clinical status after hip arthroplasty
• Wrist injuries: should we operate?
Why?
• Second opinion• Systematic approach• Decision analysis
– which factors are important– how do they influence the decision
• Prognosis,• Treatment planning,• Diagnosis, ...
Why handhelds?
• Handhelds are practical• Decision support tool should be
available wherever decision takes place• They provide enough computing power

Current Status• Applications
– BCM & Ben Taub Hospital, Houston: traumatology
– Smrke (Clinical Center in Ljubljana, Slovenia): hip, wrist injury
– Kattan (Sloan-Kettering, NY): prostate cancer
• Methodology– Logistic regression, other methods (table
lookup, naive Bayes, survival models) coming soon
– Integration with data mining tools coming soon
