PIDLA: Primary immunodeficiency diagnostic app

Publication at Second Faculty of Medicine |

Abstract

Primary immunodeficiencies are now a group of over 450 diseases, whose clinical and laboratory phenotypes can be very ambiguous and therefore present a major hurdle to the selection of high-risk patients, quick diagnosis and targetted therapy. As part of the Primary ImmunoDeficiency Look-up App (PIDLA) project we created an app which assists physicians in the differential diagnosis of inborn errors of the immunity.

The app is based on the international classification of primary immunodeficiencies IUIS from the year 2020 and utilizes sophisticated searching and ranking algorithms. In this text we describe the method of app development and demonstrate its function.
