Typhoid fever is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Salmonella typhi, commonly found in developing countries, including Indonesia. Prompt and accurate treatment is crucial to prevent serious complications in patients. One way to assist in diagnosing typhoid fever is by applying machine learning methods to classify patient data. The Naive Bayes method is one of the machine learning algorithms frequently used in medical data classification due to its strong ability to handle large and complex datasets. This article discusses the application of the Naive Bayes method for classifying typhoid patient data at Rantauprapat General Hospital (RSUD Rantauprapat). By utilizing medical data that includes clinical symptoms, laboratory test results, and patients’ medical histories, the Naive Bayes model can provide fairly accurate predictions regarding the likelihood of a person having typhoid fever. The research findings indicate that Naive Bayes is reliable in predicting typhoid diagnoses with adequate accuracy, thereby supporting healthcare professionals in making faster and more precise decisions. It is expected that the implementation of this method can accelerate the diagnostic process and improve the quality of healthcare services at RSUD Rantauprapat, as well as in other regions.
