Sistema inteligente baseado em conhecimento para acompanhamento de pré-diabéticos

Abstract

In the current scenario, it is noted that metabolic diseases have gained more visibility for researchers and scholars in the area of health, mainly because this topic compromises humanity’s lifestyle. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is one of those chronic diseases that over the years has become more present in the lives of human beings. Although there is no cure, it is possible to reduce the progression of the disease by adopting preventive health care in stages prior to its full development. This work proposes, through an intelligent system, the help of people who are in the development stage or who already have prediabetes. The objective is to provide continuous monitoring of disease indicators for a quick diagnosis, aiming at the possibility of predicting or even reversing pre-diabetes. This differs from when the Diabetes stage itself is reached, where only controlling the disease becomes the solution to avoid possible complications. This intelligent system, through a mobile application, can mainly benefit people who have difficulty accessing professionals to monitor their health condition on an ongoing basis.
