Abstract:
It comes in this work the contribution that the expert systems can offer to the medical students, in matter the one of Surgical Technique Bases, in the sense of having a tool
that allows: simulation in most several clinical situations; to aid in the route of to take decisions (diagnosis and therapeutics); to test knowledge in an interactive way: the computer
formulates questions and the student answers them (the student will be verified the state
goal (solution of a problem) corresponds that he idealized).
As decision’s flowcharts correspond one of the medical knowledge representation’s
ways more thoroughly used, it grew a software: ‘Rules Generating System’ (SGR), that allows, starting from the drawing of these structures under form of valued graphs, supply all the elements, on the format of a report, necessary to construct expert systems (variables and production rules). To enlarge the contribution of the knowledge’s engineering in the task of elaborate expert systems, it was made, also, a knowledge base that makes possible diagnosis in hydro electrolytic disturbances (topic approached in the Bases of the Surgica Technique course) that uses other forms of representation of the knowledge that no decision’s flowcharts. Using SGR, the expert systems can be mounted for any user, that has knowledge in the use of computers and graphical interfaces (Windows), starting from decision’s flowcharts previously elaborated, releasing most of the time the knowledge’s engineer. For the expert system construction it was used the Expert Sinta shell, developed by the Laboratory of Artificial intelligence (LIA) of the Ceará Federal University.
