Method and system for generating and validating clinical reports with built-in automated measurement and decision support

摘要

A method and system for generation and validation of clinical reports with built-in automated measurement and decision support is provided. XML templates may be used for ensuring report data quality. The template data may include static, dynamic, calculated data, and others. The validation method may be based on formal logical constraint specifications. The constraint descriptions may include data types, cardinality, order, co-occurrence, Boolean logic, read-only data, regular expression patterns, etc. The method can be used to validate collected data on-the-fly based on constraint specifications without human interaction.
