Abstract

In this paper we present a cardiovascular diseases prediction which is referred to as heart diseases. A detail review and application of genetic algorithms in healthcare systems including machine learning algorithms were evaluated. Areas in health systems reviewed and, in this research, includes radiology, oncology, cardiology, obstetrics and gynaecology, surgery, and infectious diseases. We conducted a healthcare management with recent reviewed papers and the application of GA in various health systems using its key parameter evaluation metrics; genetic operator, mutation operators, real coded GA, pareto-based multi-objective genetic algorithm and parallel genetic algorithms. The authors also proposed an architecture of a hybrid genetic algorithm and machine learning techniques implemented in MATLAB setting. One of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the global population, cardiovascular disease is characterized by restricted or blocked blood vessels that can cause heart attacks, angina, strokes, and other heart failures such muscle, valve, or rhythm problems. According to our analysis and findings, between 85 and 89 percent of people over the age of 40 were significantly affected by cardiovascular diseases. This result is crucial in light of the 2014–2016 Ebola outbreak in West Africa and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, both of which disproportionately affected the elderly population. Our findings also suggest that the algorithm gets more complicated and performs better the higher the generation. To forecast the results from the available data, however, and to compare the probability computation with the dataset for cardiovascular disorders, GA and ML techniques are helpful.
