The purpose with the headache expert system was to develop a diagnostic and educational tool for the general practitioners (GP), in order to improve their management of headache disorders. This chapter describes the diagnostic headache diary, an expert system intended for education and diagnosing headache disorders. The diagnostic headache diary can be printed and used by headache patients at home to record their headache attacks and medicine consumption by a day to day basis. It can also be used by the GP at the clinic in order to provide the headache diagnoses. The diagnostic headache diary was written in the programming language Delphi and implemented as a stand-alone Windows 95 program. It was integrated as one of five modules in the headache tutorial described in another chapter of this book. The diagnostic headache diary consists of four modules: Patient data, diary, medication and diagnosis. Configured around a database, the diagnostic headache diary allows entries of several patients and search facilities. The diagnostic headache diary was tested and validated by entering expert-diagnosed data from different headache disorders which where compared to the computer generated diagnoses. |
