Abstract:

The Quality Assurance in Maternity Care (QAMC) project has produced a web page to demonstrate the potential benefits in combining three elements: interactive access to information via the World Wide Web; statistical risk models and data mining techniques; large databases of medical information.

This document describes the context in which this web page was developed, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of this approach to medical risk prediction.
