Several examples illustrate the application of CDSS in epidemiology:
- Infectious Disease Surveillance: CDSS can monitor and predict outbreaks of infectious diseases, such as influenza or COVID-19, by analyzing real-time data from various sources.
- Chronic Disease Management: These systems help manage chronic diseases like diabetes and hypertension by providing personalized treatment recommendations based on patient history and current condition.
- Vaccination Programs: CDSS can optimize vaccination programs by identifying high-risk populations and suggesting targeted immunization strategies.
