Abstract
A knowledge-based system to interpret data regarding a patient´s fluid-electrolyte balance is discussed. The prototype system meshes techniques drawn from expert systems with those of dynamic mathematical modeling. The utilization of an off-the-shelf model (MACPEE) to justify treatment suggestion provided by the prototype is described. Detailed information on the prototype system design is provided, and its evaluation is discussed.<>
