This study presents a new way to model the combined diagnosis and treatment processes in healthcare. The Asbru language allows for integrated clinical decision-making, improving patient care protocols.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Clinical Decision Support Systems
  • Artificial Intelligence in Medicine

Background:

  • Traditional healthcare models often separate diagnosis and treatment, limiting integrated patient care.
  • Computer-supported healthcare systems predominantly focus on either diagnosis or treatment, not their interplay.
  • Real-world clinical practice involves complex interactions between diagnosis and treatment, such as iterative loops and continuous monitoring.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel approach for modeling the integrated diagnosis and treatment processes in healthcare.
  • To demonstrate the utility of the Asbru clinical protocol-representation language for representing these combined processes.
  • To provide a flexible framework for developing advanced clinical decision support systems.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing the Asbru clinical protocol-representation language to model integrated diagnosis and treatment.
  • Implementing treatment steps within a hierarchical structure of skeletal, time-oriented plans.
  • Representing diagnosis declaratively within treatment conditions or as explicit plans.

Main Results:

  • Asbru successfully models the dynamic interplay between diagnosis and treatment in clinical workflows.
  • The language supports both iterative diagnosis-treatment cycles and continuous patient monitoring.
  • Demonstrated application using the American Association of Paediatricians' guideline for hyperbilirubinemia treatment in newborns.

Conclusions:

  • The Asbru language offers a robust method for integrating diagnosis and treatment planning in computer-supported healthcare.
  • This integrated approach enhances the modeling of complex clinical scenarios and decision-making.
  • The developed framework has the potential to improve the design and implementation of intelligent healthcare systems.
