This study introduces evidence-based workflow management systems (WfMS) to improve healthcare coordination. These systems leverage best medical practices for better patient care and organizational performance.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Medical Process Management
  • Knowledge Management in Healthcare

Background:

  • Healthcare provider activities require coordination through well-designed processes based on best medical knowledge.
  • Rethinking care process management in health organizations is necessary.
  • Current workflow technology offers potential for cooperative systems but has limitations for real medical practice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present an approach for designing and building evidence-based workflow management systems (WfMS).
  • To position WfMS as components of a knowledge management infrastructure.
  • To enhance healthcare organization performance and quality of care through efficient knowledge resource exploitation.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a general methodology for WfMS design.

  • Implementation of a WfMS for Stroke management.
  • Intensive laboratory testing and ongoing transfer to a clinical setting (stroke unit).

    • Main Results:

    • A WfMS approach for evidence-based healthcare processes has been developed.
    • The Stroke management WfMS has undergone laboratory testing and is being integrated into a clinical setting.
    • The system is being integrated with an existing electronic patient record.

    Conclusions:

    • Evidence-based WfMS can improve healthcare coordination and performance.
    • Workflow technology, when refined, can be effectively applied in medical practice.
    • Integration with existing systems like electronic patient records is crucial for successful implementation.
