Intelligent health system for the investigation of consenting COVID-19 patients and precision medicine.

Abstract

Advancing frontiers of clinical research, we discuss the need for intelligent health systems to support a deeper investigation of COVID-19. We hypothesize that the convergence of the healthcare data and staggering developments in artificial intelligence have the potential to elevate the recovery process with diagnostic and predictive analysis to identify major causes of mortality, modifiable risk factors and actionable information that supports the early detection and prevention of COVID-19. However, current constraints include the recruitment of COVID-19 patients for research; translational integration of electronic health records and diversified public datasets; and the development of artificial intelligence systems for data-intensive computational modeling to assist clinical decision making. We propose a novel nexus of machine learning algorithms to examine COVID-19 data granularity from population studies to subgroups stratification and ensure best modeling strategies within the data continuum.
