Toward Ontology-based Representation of Cancer Clinical Guidelines Jonathan Bona and Carmelo Gaudioso
We are developing ontology-based computable representations of NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines realized as OWL documents that explicitly represent the logical structure of the guidelines' contents (workflows, recommendations, etc) for use in automated decision support and compliance metrics within the context of multidisciplinary cancer care. This work uses existing Open Biomedical Ontologies where possible, and other resources such as the NCBI Taxonomy, to build representations of the relevant entities. Our goal is to improve the usability and accuracy of healthcare processes and informations systems that use the guidelines.
Obstetric and Neonatal Information Portal: An Ontologically Realist Proposal Fernanda Farinelli
EHRs related to care in prenatal, labor, delivery, puerperal and newborn phases are necessary to ensure continuity of care for both infant and mother. Such continuity of care is needed even where patient care is taking place within a plurality of health system perhaps located in different geographical locations or political jurisdictions. Business intelligence (BI) solutions are known as important tools to integrate different data source and provide information to make decisions. However, gather information from different information system requires semantic interoperability among these systems. Through the ontological realism approach it is possible to overcome semantic incompatibilities found in obstetric and neonatal systems. A BI solution conceptually based on ontological realism should be able to provide information capable to support health policy and also to foster better decisions in the application of resources. Francesco Furini: Ontology in Manufacturing: The Example of Functionally Graded Materials I will use BFO as a starting point for formulating mid-level descriptions of manufacturing activities, using the steps involved in manufacturing functionally graded materials as case study.
