Abstract:

Hospital Management system (HMS) is important for any hospital for its strategic planning, budgeting, resource allocation, maintaining patients__ampersandsign#39; record, personnel development, distribution and management
of equipment, supplies, drugs and supervision of the services. The present paper reports a prototype
Hospital Management Information System (HMIS) developed for Z.V.M. Unani Medical College and hospital. The
unique feature of this Unani_HMS was a special module for identification of Mizaj (temperament). A quick survey
conducted at Alana Institute of Management Sciences (AIMS) [9] was taken as the basis for the Mizaj determination
process. A data mining exercise using WEKA applied to data of 67 respondents was used to generate the decision tree,
by the authors. A Module to read the decision tree (text file ) was written in PHP. While the patient__ampersandsign#39;s registration
details are being stored in the data base, a copy of patient__ampersandsign#39;s details are sent to Determination Of Temperament()
function as parameters to determine the Temperament. The function gets the parameters and begins to start parsing
the decision tree by using relevant records in the data base.
