Abstract : Personalized medical care is an individualized approach to managing and treating diseases in the healthcare system. It follows the personalized medicine concept and has recently received much attention from the governing scientific and healthcare disease communities worldwide. Personalized medicine is speedily impacting how patients are managed and treated and how healthcare delivery is channelling its resources to maximize patient benefits. The main objective of this study was to develop a Case-based reasoning system for personalized medical care for patients with Diabetes Mellitus Type 2. Design science within the knowledge engineering method was used. The knowledge acquired from domain experts and through document analysis was modelled using the hierarchical conceptual modelling method, and cases were generated and represented with the feature value format. The prototype was implemented using JCOLIBRI software and scored an F-Measure of 84% and user acceptance of 86.2% and 82%, respectively. Applying a case-based reasoning system in personalized medical care is important to improve the quality of service delivery to address each patient’s case through unique characteristics/attributes such as age, gender, blood pressure, and fasting blood sugar. Even if the prototype registered promising results, future research work is expected from different scholars in personalized medicine for more improvement.
