 Abstract

A Heart Disease Prediction System (HDPS) has been created using Logistic Regression
algorithms and 15 medical parameters like age, sex, and cholesterol. This system accurately
predicts the risk of heart disease, helping healthcare professionals make better decisions. By
analyzing large amounts of data, the HDPS uncovers important connections between medical
factors and heart disease patterns, offering valuable insights. The results show that the system
effectively predicts heart disease risk levels, promising improvements in patient care and
outcomes.

Introduction

Detecting a heart attack early is crucial for timely medical intervention and improved patient
outcomes. Heart attacks, also known as myocardial infarctions, occur when blood flow to a
part of the heart is blocked for a prolonged period, leading to damage or death of heart
muscle cells. Rapid detection is essential to minimize heart damage and prevent
complications. In recent years, advancements in technology and medical research have led to
the development of various methods for detecting heart attacks, ranging from traditional
diagnostic tests to more innovative approaches leveraging artificial intelligence and wearable
devices.This will explore some of the key methods and technologies used in heart attack
detection, highlighting their strengths, limitations, and potential implications for improving
patient care and outcomes.

1.1 Motivation
Heart disease, particularly heart attacks, is widespread. Doctors gather data on patients'
symptoms and progression. Nowadays, people lead busy lives, focusing on work and luxury,
neglecting their health. Stress, unhealthy food, and lack of rest contribute to conditions like
high blood pressure and diabetes, leading to heart disease.

7
1.2 Problem Statement
Our goal is to predict heart disease accurately with just a few tests, saving time and
money on unnecessary procedures. By focusing on key attributes, we aim to provide fast
and efficient predictions to help prevent heart disease and reduce the need for costly
treatments like surgery. With the right approach, we can manage heart disease effectively
through lifestyle changes, medication, and sometimes surgery, improving heart function
and reducing symptoms.

1.3 Objectives
The objective of a heart attack detection mini project is to develop a system using
data analytics and machine learning techniques to accurately identify individuals at
risk of experiencing a heart attack. This involves analyzing various health parameters
and risk factors to provide actionable insights for early intervention and prevention
strategies, ultimately improving patient outcomes and reducing the burden on

healthcare systems.

The Health Disease Monitoring System collects and integrates data from various
sources ,analyses the data using advanced data analytics techniques, and provides
personalized recommendations and interventions for patients. Overall, the Health Disease
Monitoring System has been well-received by patients and healthcare providers, and it has

risk factors. For example, incorporating genetic data or lifestyle factors like diet and
exercise could provide more comprehensive insights into a patient's risk for heart
disease.

2. Refining the algorithm: Another area for improvement could be to refine the
algorithm used to predict heart disease. This could involve using machine learning
techniques to optimize the algorithm based on a larger dataset, or incorporating
feedback from medical professionals to help fine-tune the model
