METHOD FOR SYNCHRONIZING THE STATE OF A COMPUTER INTERPRETABLE GUIDELINE ENGINE WITH THE STATE OF PATIENT CARE

摘要

A method of synchronizing a state of a computer interpretable guideline engine with a state of patient care includes receiving historic workflow data and clinical data for one or more patients, wherein the workflow data includes information on a plurality of care steps for each of the patients and the clinical data includes clinical measurements and observations collected from each of the patients, determining the proper state of the computer interpretable guideline engine by processing the workflow and clinical data in chronological order for each of the patients, and inferring missing data from available data or querying it from clinicians.

1. A method of synchronizing a state of a computer interpretable guideline engine with a state of patient care, the method comprising:
receiving historic patient data for one or more patients, wherein patient data includes workflow data and clinical data, wherein the workflow data includes information on a plurality of care steps for each of the patients and the clinical data includes clinical measurements and observations collected from each of the patients; resolving missing patient data for each of the patients utilizing historic patient data, inference based on historic patient data, or prompting users; updating the engine state utilizing the resolved patient data; receiving current patient data for one or more patients; and updating the engine state utilizing the current patient data wherein missing data is ranked by a variable importance measure of Principal Components Analysis to determine relevant questions to ask the users.
