Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Informatics
  • Health Informatics
  • Medical Data Analysis

Background:

  • Health screening generates extensive data.
  • Communicating complex health information to patients can be challenging.
  • Visual and simplified health status indicators are needed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel disease score index.
  • To computerize health screening data into an understandable format.
  • To improve patient comprehension of their health status.

Main Methods:

  • Devised a disease score index using computerized health screening data.
  • Developed a computer program for data calculation and graphic output.
  • Generated reports with disease maps, score graphs, and comments.

Main Results:

  • A computer program calculates a disease score index from screening data.
  • The index generates easily understood graphic and pictorial outputs.
  • Reports include disease maps, score graphs, and concise comments.

Conclusions:

  • The disease score index effectively displays organ functional status.
  • The visual output enhances patient understanding of their health.
  • The index shows potential for identifying individuals requiring further clinical examination, pending validation.
