This is the home of the Clinical Decision Support (CDS) Working Group.  Our goal is to identify and deploy, within a shared AWS environment, the service required to support CDS use cases in a variety of healthcare contexts.  This exemplar capability will seeks to provide the knowledge management, business intelligence and predictive analytic technologies required for advanced cognitive support and workflow optimization. A hybrid Event Driven Architecture (EDA) / Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) / Agent Architecture will be developed to initiate appropriate analytic processing in response to real-time events. CDS triggers can be messages, for example, HL7 transaction sets used to communicate laboratory results or patient monitor waveforms that require Complex Event Processing to be handled effectively. The initiated workflows will then managed using components ensuring core business logic are well-abstracted, reusable, and encapsulated behind standards-based interfaces. The platform will provide the advanced process orchestration and state management critical for executing complex clinical guidelines and treatment plans. A Production Rule engine (Drools) will be utilized to a) capture and encode rule-based clinical domain expertise, b) ensure process validity with respect to declarative constraints, and c) provide flexible control over application and middle tier behavior.

The CDS Collaboratory maintains Bitbucket repositories where all artifacts, reference implementation code and unit tests are maintained (x & y) and a HSPC Slack channel (#cds @ https://hspconsortium.slack.com).

The Team currently consists of the following individuals and organizations:
