METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF WEB BASED COLLABORATIVE CLINICAL PATHWAYS

摘要

Methods and systems to facilitate the collaborative development, discovery and implementation of evidence-based, clinical pathways are disclosed. Clinicians, medical professionals or researchers, may use the Platform 105 in multiple implementation, such as integrated with a third-party system like an EHR 104 to build and find clinical pathways through a graphical interface, creating relational data records between steps in pathways. Further, users of the Platform 105 may be able to associate relevant content such as published evidence, supplemental content items (e.g., videos, images, documents, ICD, CPT, SNOMED codes, and external web pages), and other associated pathways which reside in the system's database. Users of the Platform 105 may be able organize themselves into groups and networks to develop single pathways collaboratively. Users may be able to find specific pathways in the Platform 105 through semantic search, querying for relationships which exist inside of individual pathways. Search results may be generated for a variety of user driven data, both explicit and implicit.
