What are clinical guidelines?
•A recommended strategy for management of a medical problem in order to– Improve outcomes
–Reduce practice variation
–Reduce inappropriate use of resources
•Computer-interpretable Guidelines can deliver patient-specific advice during encounters
•GLIF3 is a CIG formalism dev. by InterMed

Reasons for Local Adaptation/changes
•Variations among settings due to – Institution type (hospital vs. physician office)
–Location (e.g., urban vs. rural)
•Availability of resources •Dissimilarity of patient population
(prevalence)
•Local policies•Practice patterns•Consideration of EMR schema and
data availability

Research purpose
•Characterize a tool-supported process of encoding guidelines as DSSs that supports local adaptation and EMR integration
•Identify and classify the types of changes in guideline encoding during a local adaptation process

Validation using GLEE
•Executed: –14 real patient cases from the EMR–6 simulated cases, which covered all
paths through the algorithm
•The validation considered 22 branching points and recommendations
•At the end of the validation, all 22 criteria matched with the expected results
![Page 17: Mor Peleg 1 , Dongwen Wang 2 , Adriana Fodor 3 , Sagi Keren 4 and Eddy Karnieli 3](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568154c6550346895dc2cb85/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Types of changes made
•Defining concepts–2 of 10 concepts not defined in original GL–6 definitions restated according to available
data•Adjusting to local setting
–GPs don’t give parenteral antibiotics (4 changes)
•Defining workflow –Two courses of antibiotics may be given (4)
•Matching with local practice–e.g. EMG should be ordered (4)
![Page 18: Mor Peleg 1 , Dongwen Wang 2 , Adriana Fodor 3 , Sagi Keren 4 and Eddy Karnieli 3](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062410/568154c6550346895dc2cb85/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The EMR schema & data availability affected encoding of
decision criteria
• Multiple guideline concepts mapped to 1 EMR data item (e.g., abscess & fluctuance)
• A single guideline concept mapped to multiple EMR data (e.g., “ulcer present”)
• Guideline concepts were not always available in the EMR schema (restate decision criteria)
• Unavailable data (e.g., “ulcer present”)• Mismatches in data types and normal
ranges (e.g., a>3 vs. “a_gt_3.4”)

Summary
•We suggest a tool-supported process for encoding a narrative guideline as a DSS in a local institution
•We analyzed changes made throughout this process

Discussion
• Encoding by informatician was done before consulting clinicians re: localization– Presenting an abstract flowchart to them
eases communication– But involving clinicians early saves time
• Ongoing work: – Integration of the decision support functions
within the web-based interface to the EMR– a mapping ontology that would allow encoding
the guideline in GLIF through clinical abstractions and mapping to the actual EMR tables
