Abstract

Diseases like common cold, influenza, dengue fever, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) are very common in children because they have low immunity and cannot avoid the risk of contracting the disease. In addition, all of these five diseases exhibit similar types of symptoms. Sometimes, it is difficult to identify one disease from the others from those symptoms alone, which may lead to an outbreak. This work was a design and construction of a mathematical model and a fuzzy hierarchical analysis process for assisting in disease screening of common diseases with similar symptoms. Data on observable and self-measured patient symptoms were available in the screening process. The output from the screening process will be the probability of contracting the disease, which can be used in the screening process to isolate patients, reduce the spread of pathogens, and put the patient in the care of specialist expeditiously.
