Decision support recommendation optimization

摘要

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for facilitating clinical decision making by directing the emission of computer-generated health-care related recommendations towards contexts in which the recipient will likely find the recommendations salient and will likely welcome them and act upon them. ‘Uptake’ of computer-generated recommendations for diagnostic tests or therapeutic interventions is thereby substantially increased, and ‘alert fatigue’ is substantially decreased. Embodiments of our technology overcome certain drawbacks associated with the prior art by providing a means for ascertaining which decision-support recommendations are likely to be favorably considered by the recipient and acted-upon (recommendation ‘uptake’). System and method embodiments for providing a predicted probability of user uptake of a context-specific system-generated recommendation patient are disclosed herein and for applying that information to decide whether or not to emit the relevant recommendation.

主权项

1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage devices having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that when executed provide a method for providing recommendations to a provider based on transaction data for a plurality of patients, the method comprising:
a) assembling transaction data for a plurality of patients; b) determining a patient context comprising serial medical data; c) generating a recommendation to a provider regarding the patient context; d) collecting information about provider acceptance of said recommendation; e) accumulating an ensemble of recommendation information; f) identifying a pattern that is predictive of recommendation acceptance over said ensemble; and g) determining to refrain from emitting a recommendation based on said pattern, the determining to refrain from emitting a recommendation comprising filtering the ensemble based on the pattern that is predictive of recommendation acceptance.
