  1. Reduce the clinical burden placed on a provider due to challenges and or limitations stemming from health IT systems, associated clinical data, and implemented clinical decision support services

  2. Represent clinical data elements for COVID-19 workflows in a consistent format (i.e. utilizing BPM+) so that it is underpinned by a fully-defined terminology model and common data model (i.e., Solor and Analysis Normal Form)

  3. Standardize the application of clinical workflows and clinical decision support to enhance clinical quality improvement, analytics, and other clinical data processing around COVID-19 screening, testing, and treatment, to be leveraged for future public health emergencies

The KBS Informatics Knowledge Architecture found below will enable a streamlined and simplified workflow for specifying a consistent representation for clinical data extracted from EHR systems and enhance these data for use in enhancing COVID-19 workflows. Furthermore, our architecture will result in clinical data that is easily normalized, improving integration with BPM+ and other procedural knowledge artifacts.

Definitions

Solor – is an open-source ecosystem that brings together data-encoding standards with an extensible, single model to help health care organizations avoid errors in the interpretation of clinical data.

Analysis Normal Form (ANF) – is an HL7 Informative Logical Model Specification that normalizes a variety of clinical data to a common normal form so that the data is simple, consistent, reusable, understandable, and useful.

Business Process Modeling +  – a community of healthcare providers, vendors, and clinical specialty societies  to advance the consistency and quality of business process modeling notation to create sharable clinical pathways, clinical guidelines, and other healthcare knowledge to maximize usefulness and compliance with healthcare best practices.

Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) – BPMN is a precise, complete and graphical notation for documenting well-defined business processes. It resolves many ambiguities found in textual process specifications by assigning activities to specific actors

Decision Modeling and Notation (DMN) – DMN is a notation for the precise specification of business decisions and rules. DMN is readily readable by the different types of people involved in decision management. These include business people who specify the rules but also monitor their application; business analysts who transform user input into detailed decision models; and software developers who implement them in enterprise systems.
