The paediatric orthopaedic expert system analyses and predicts the healing time of limb fractures in children using machine learning. As far we know, no published research on the paediatric orthopaedic expert system that predicts paediatric fracture healing time using machine learning has been published. The University Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC) offers paediatric orthopaedic data, comprises children under the age of 12 radiographs limb fractures with ages recorded from the date and time of initial trauma. SVR algorithms are used to predict and discover variables associated with fracture healing time. This study developed an expert system capable of predicting healing time, which can assist general practitioners and healthcare practitioners during treatment and follow-up. The system is available online at https://kidsfractureexpert.com/.
