Informed Consent

We have created a BPM+ collection of models for “Informed Consent” of a medical procedure. It includes 2 BPMN models, 1 CMMMN model and 3 DMN Models.

  1. The root model is a BPMN model named: Procedure Consent

  2. To identify the decision maker, this model invokes a DMN model: Person Making the Patient's Decisions

  3. It then invokes a CMMN model that provides a: Consent Information Session

    1. During the information session:

      1. The procedure is explained

      2. The procedure risks are explained

      3. The patient’s questions are answered

      4. and, finally a DMN model is invoked to validate: Readiness to Give Consent

        1. If affirmative, the decision is discussed

        2. If negative, the model schedules another: Consent Information Session

  4. Following the information session a DMN model is invoked to validate the: Decision to Proceed

    1. If the decision to proceed is positive, the model then invoke a BPMN model to: Sign Consent Documents

    2. If the decision to proceed is negative, the model then cancel the procedure

    3. If the decision to proceed is uncertain, the model then schedules another: Consent Information Session
