REPRESENTATION AND EFFICIENT MANAGEMENT OF MULTI-VERSION CLINICAL GUIDELINES

摘要

While the world wide web user is suffering from the disease caused by information overload, for which personalization is one of the treatments which works, a physician accessing web-based clinical guideline repositories is not immune from contagion. This seems a good reason to prescribe a personalization treatment also to the professional user of a computerized clinical guideline library. To this end, we apply to clinical guidelines solutions we previously developed for norm texts in the legal domain, and show how multi-version representation capabilities and personalization query facilities can be added to their management.
