Collecting data from things, devices and multiple sources presents a significant problem. Patients can be classified into those patients who are having elective treatment and those emergency patients who require immediate treatment. Those elective patients who do not require emergency treatment may experience health deterioration and eventually require emergency treatment or tests.

A hospital setting is characterized by dynamic uncertainty and a frequent need to dynamically change the treatment pathway & proposed the intelligent context-aware decision support (ICADS) system, which provides an effective basis for rescheduling and prioritizing essential services while maximizing the effectiveness of the staff in knowing the health status of their patients, planning emergency treatment requirements and providing quality care.

Even though this system can produce exciting benefits for the stakeholders of the healthcare industry, several complexities and challenges in hospital settings need to be addressed before implementing ICADS.
