Virtual Healthcare Assistant

Medical Healthcare

One of the most common problems faced by people suffering from common ailments or maybe even major ones is the lack of immediate first aid consultation or a centralized service to a clinical database. Due to this lack of the knowledge of the standard operating procedure in such cases, these ailments might aggravate. This results in either physical or mental tension for the person suffering from such ailments. In some cases, the patient suffers from intense mental stress as they try to figure out the reason for their condition. The proposed system tries to eliminate their need to figure out their disease by giving them access to a centralized clinical repository in a much interactive way, just like in a virtual assistant, hence Virtual Healthcare Assistant (VHA). The user gets asked several questions, each one contextually aware of the previous one. The user selects the ailments or their condition and thus a conclusion is reached. This project aims to develop a web service that can present information regarding the health issues and ailments & their history. At the end a precise prescription is generated. What this project can't ensure is the accuracy of the health condition that the service arrived at, and thus in such cases a physician must be contacted. These features thus eliminate the need to search for symptoms online.
