Automation of Headache Patient Data Analysis

The Headspace project aims to overcome the issue of patient story repetition by creating an automated system that feeds patient stories into its records. The system will have various features such as login, feeding patient story, information extraction, data analysis, medical comments, and user management. The preferred mode of accessing the system is through a web interface. Security measures are crucial for the setup of this automated system. The project also involves the use of technical tools like Business Intelligence software for data analysis. Trainings or system documentation can be used to understand the functionalities of the system.

Automated Information Recording System
Introduction
The use and application of technology in the organizations for the accomplishment of the
business activities is unquestionable. There are different technologies that are being applied in
different sectors. The choice of these technologies is based upon the specific requirements of the
business operations. The use of information systems and technologies for information
management and storage is in existence since a long time (Rhyous, 2011).
Headspace project is a critical project for the Government of Australia because of the nature of
activities that are required to be performed under it. A huge investment of AUD 54 million has
been assigned for the project. The aim of the project is to provide the required medical assistance
to the youth of Australia suffering from mental disorders and conditions. The procedure that is
used in the present time requires the patient to share their story with all of the case workers
individually. This requires the repetition of their story for multiple times. This leads to the loss of
interest of the patient and also builds up a sense of frustration. The proposed solution is an
automatic system that will capture the patient story automatically.

Interest of the Stakeholders
Stakeholder Name Type Stakeholder’s Interest
Patient Internal, Operational There are problems that are
present with the current
system in terms of the
repetition of their story.
Patients are interested in the
project as their story will be
recorded in the first session
which will be utilized by the
rest of the workers working on
the case.
Project Management Internal, Executive The project management will
have good interest in
Headspace project as the
management will take primary
decisions for the project
execution and planning.
Project Team Internal, Operational The success of the project and
the success of the project team
members will have a direct
relation. The success results of
the project will have a positive
impact on the project members
in terms of the benefits and
rewards provided to them.

Internal, Operational The project will bring the
elements of easy usage and
maintenance along with
accuracy and reliability. This
will bring enhanced interest of
the health care experts and
clinical team members in the
project (Watt, 2016)
Australian Government –
Project Sponsor
External, Executive The sponsors will want the
project to be completed on
time and under the allocated
budget. The success of the
project and the
accomplishment of the
objectives will lead to the
attainment of improved mental
health of the Australian
citizens.
Questionnaire Technique
Introduction Statement
The stakeholder map that has been displayed above lists out the internal, external, operational
and executive stakeholders associated with the Headspace project. Irrespective of the stakeholder
types, there is a lot of information that can be collected from each group of the stakeholders.
There are different techniques that the data analysts may use for information gathering and
investigation. Questionnaire is a technique that can be applied which will include the list of the
questions that will be asked from the stakeholders. They will provide the response and the
comments for every question that will be present in the questionnaire. The response will be
analyzed by the data analysts and the information regarding the project will be obtained.

Set of Questions for Health Care Experts and Clinical Team
 What role does the patient story play in determining the mental health condition of the
patient?
 What is the average size of the medical team that works on the case of a patient?
 What are the major flaws and drawbacks of the present system?
 What are the techniques and standards that are used for the protection of the patient
details?
 Are you making use of any advanced Business Intelligence tools for information
analysis?
 What is preferred mode of accessing the system – web or mobile?
 Are you aware of the security measures that will be required with the set up of the
automated system for Headspace project?
 Are you using any other technical tools?
 Will you prefer trainings or system documentation for understanding the functionalities
of the system?

Use Case Model
Description of the Use Cases
 Application Login
The users will be able to enter in to the system by using the login credentials. These
credentials will also aid in the setting up of the access control for the application.
 Feeding Patient Story
The primary goal of the project is to overcome the current issue of the repetition of the
story by the patient. The automated system will automatically feed the patient story in its
records as the information will be captured during the first session itself. A record of the
same will be created and its copy will be sent in the database synced with the system.
 Information Extraction
The patient and its case information will be available in the system and it will be possible
to extract the same using the patient id. The medical team member and any of the new
joiners in the case will be able to extract and view the information by making use of the
valid credentials and a valid patient id (Fakhroutdinov, 2016).
 Data Analysis
7

Automated Information Recording System
The automated system will be integrated with the Business Intelligence tools which will
be used for analyzing the data of the patients. The patient story will be analyzed to
identify the medical signs and symptoms. The results will assist the health care experts
and professionals in determining the specific health condition.
 Medical Comments
The system will also allow the medical professionals and health care experts to attach
their comments on the patient story. This will allow the other members in the case team
to understand the patient condition and provide the treatment accordingly.
 User Management
There will be many users that will make use of the system for execution of the activities.
The administrator will be allowed to set up the users and manage the same. User-centric
operations such as user addition, user deletion, user modification and the allocation of
privileges to the users will be performed by the system admin (Wick, 2016).
Description of a Fully Developed Use Case
Use Case Name Feeding Patient Story
Scenario The patient story will be fed in the system and will be stored in
the database synced with it
