Sažetak
Respiratory diseases can be very difficult to diagnose because their symptoms are sometimes very similar to each other. If we analyze asthma and COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), diseases which are targeted in our research, we come to the conclusion that early detection of airway impairment can greatly assist in an early diagnosis. In this paper we present an integrated software suite that can help doctors make correct diagnosis of diseases such as asthma and COPD, using lung function tests. The software is based on object oriented methodology. The parameters of spirometry, IOS (Impulse Oscillometry System) and body plethysmography, used in the diagnosis of respiratory disease, will be included in the neuro- fuzzy system in order to help the software suggest proper diagnosis of asthma, COPD or normal lung condition. In order to meet all the conditions that are necessary for the proper and complete diagnosis of respiratory diseases, there is also information about the symptoms, allergies and auscultation of the patient included. In cases where it is not possible to determine the diagnosis on the basis of symptoms, spirometry and IOS test, the software indicates BDT (bronchial dilation test) and BPT (bronchial provocation test), after which new tests are required for spirometry, IOS and body plethysmography in order to get a complete diagnosis.
