1. Introduction

In the context of human beings, healthcare refers to the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases, illnesses, injuries, and other impairments in order to maintain and enhance overall health. The healthcare industry is comprised of organizations that provide clinical sorts of help, manufacture medical equipment or pharmaceuticals, provide clinical protection, or coordinate the delivery of medical services to patients. The snowballing of healthcare data has created the potential to use data-driven methodologies, such as machine learning technologies, to aid diagnosis. Healthcare organizations create and collect huge volumes of information that contain useful signals and information that go beyond conventional analytical approaches [1]. As human beings, we are hardwired to take in information and process it in context. Whether we are aware of it or not,

the situation in which we find ourselves often determines how and why we behave. This environment is diverse, subjective, and ever-changing [2]. But for machines, deriving this contextual information is difficult.

The term “context” [3, 4] refers to any piece of data that helps paint a picture of how something functions within the healthcare system [5]. A context is characterized by information derived from the environment [6]. In the field of healthcare, researchers often overlook contextual features. Any information that may be used to describe the conditions of distinct entities and their interactions is referred to as context. Context, according to Almazan, “comprises one or more relationships that an information item has with other information items”. Any entity, real or virtual (such as a person, a computer, or an object), as well as a concept (such as place, time, and so on), may be an information item [7].

All things that can influence how a system operates or how a user interacts with it are considered entities [7]. When seen from a phenomenological point of view, the setting is regarded as an interactional dilemma in which the relationship quality that exists between two things or between two actions is referred to as contextuality, the contextual characteristics are defined on the fly, the attribute of context is the one that is caused, and context is generated by the action [8]. A predicate connecting two or more information items is referred to as a relationship, and this connection is subject to alter at any moment and for any cause [9].

A programme or workflow is said to be context-aware [10] if it considers the environment in which it operates. The definition of context awareness states, “A system is context-aware if it uses context to provide relevant information and/or services to the user, where relevancy depends on the task being performed by the user”. Better matching of healthcare services to the medical conditions and needs of patients under health monitoring; increased ICU space outcome via advanced ML models; and the integration of a cloud-based medical appointment scheduling application are just some of the ways in which “context-aware workflows” can enhance the quality of healthcare delivery, use limited healthcare and human resources more efficiently, and improve the health of patients. It is possible to employ context information in a transitional setting. Replicated internal context data in a workflow variable or current external context data in the context management system might be used [11].

The term “context awareness” refers to the concept that an application is able to comprehend the surroundings in which it is operating and modify its behavior automatically depending on the data it has gleaned from its surroundings rather than requiring direct input from the user. Therefore, applications of this type would make use of context information to determine the current state of the environment, store user preferences in order to gain a better understanding of the situation that currently exists in the environment, invoke some context actions in order to adapt their behavior, and optionally notify the user or update a user interface [12].

KD Anind [13] defines a context-aware system as one that takes the user's current activity into account when determining what data and services are most useful to them. Byun et al. make a similar argument, emphasizing that context awareness allows for the extraction, interpretation, and application of contextual information, as well as the adaptation of functionality based on the context in which it is being used [14].

Both the field of computers and the field of social sciences have come to acknowledge the significance of contextual information as a crucial modelling factor [15]. It is hard to design and build applications that can understand their surroundings. The process of acquiring context is not an easy one. Context information is multi-dimensional; it may be received from diverse and dispersed sources (e.g., electronic health records, patient files, apps); it can be either dynamic or static; and it can need an extra interpretation in order for an application to find it useful. The process of adaptation may be connected to the semantics of the programme and may be based on a variety of different techniques, depending on the level of dynamism that is necessary. Applications that are aware of their context require certain methods of development [16].

Context-aware computing aims to collect and make use of data about the current setting in order to show pertinent data or deliver services that are suitable for the current environment [17]. The term “context” refers to both the conceptual setting in which an application is utilized (the user's profile, preferences, and social circumstances) and the physical setting in which the programme is executed (which is typically heterogeneous and resource-constrained). To deliver results from an application that meets the requirements of its users, it is necessary to collect and make sense of data from several context sources [18].

Context has many different dimensions; to name a few, it can include perceptual information, environmental information (such as the amount of pollution), physical information (such as one's current location), social information (such as one's family and co-workers), and temporal information (such as the time of day). One's context also includes non-perceptual information like recollections of prior encounters or their emotional state [2]. There are different context parameters considered for our research work. Some of them includes age, gender, data from rural and urban areas, gestation period, intervertebral discs variation, trauma, tumor, diabetes and retina damage.

With a growing global population and longer life expectancies, current treatment models face new problems. Medical decision-making has been highlighted as a crucial component of healthcare reform for enhancing both quality and safety and has been described as “the heart of patient-centered care” [19]. The process of diagnosis is a difficult endeavor that may have a substantial effect on the clinical results and quality of life of a patient [20]. Making the greatest judgments is getting more and more difficult in a world where complexity is developing quickly. In fact, making the best decisions across all disciplines is challenging, but it is particularly challenging in the medical sector. To address this issue, various artificial intelligence-based approaches and methods, decision-assistance systems, and mathematical modelling techniques are gradually being introduced into the field of mental health [21]. This will enable decision-makers and healthcare professionals to make well-informed decisions that are based on solid evidence [22].

The implementation of CDSS, which stands for computerized clinical decision support systems, signifies a paradigm transformation in modern healthcare. Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) are used to assist physicians with the difficult decision-making processes they face. A clinical decision support system, often known as a CDSS, is aimed at improving medical decision-making by providing focused patient information, clinical knowledge, and other forms of well-being information. This should result in an improvement in the delivery of healthcare [23]. Fig. (1) depicts the abstract architecture of a clinical decision support system that takes the patient’s data and in response, recommends a set of suitable clinical decisions. After analyzing the results, the doctor decides which diagnoses are likely to be relevant and which are not, and if required, he or she conducts further clinical tests to confirm the diagnosis or to help narrow it down.

The origins of CDSSs that were based on computers may be traced back to the 1970s. In addition to being time-consuming, labor-intensive, and often off-limits outside of the classroom, the systems of the period had inadequate integration. Concerns were also expressed about the law and ethics surrounding the use of computers in medicine, medical autonomy, and who would be responsible for following the advice of a flawed system [23].

Optimized and time-saving judgments may be made with the use of clinical decision assistance. The use of newly acquired scientific knowledge and technological know-how has helped to progress clinical care (IT). Adoption by clinicians will increase as a result of decision support that is able to deliver sophisticated, context-specific, and time-efficient suggestions at the point of care. This will also allow for a more complete exploitation of the aids of information technology for the enhancement of medical care [24].

Fig. (1)) Healthcare decision support system.

By facilitating a two-way conversation between the doctor and the computer, medical decision support systems compile and organize data to aid doctors in making correct diagnoses and selecting effective treatments. However, things get more difficult when the decision-maker has to choose the optimal option based on a number of factors and potential courses of action for the patient in question. The process of decision-making for physicians involves a complex interplay of many different aspects, including the use of biological knowledge, thorough problem-analysis, balancing the probability and usefulness of alternative outcomes, and acceptance of risk [25].
