Book Synopsis A Context Sensitive, Advisory Decision Support Approach for Mobile, Knowledge Based, Time Critical Environments by : Shane Anthony Grigsby
Download or read book A Context Sensitive, Advisory Decision Support Approach for Mobile, Knowledge Based, Time Critical Environments written by Shane Anthony Grigsby and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research aimed to explore decision support in mobile, knowledge based, time critical environments involving ill-defined decision situations. The research was concerned with how decision makers in such environments made their decisions and whether/how the decision making process could be supported by knowledge based decision support technology. The aim presented within the thesis is to ascertain the necessary components of a decision support system capable of incorporating contextual knowledge, real time context modelling and providing useful decision support for ill-defined decision situations. A design science research methodology was adopted for the research. This methodology incorporated researching the domain, knowledge acquisition, artefact development in the form of a prototype, and a qualitative evaluation of the system's feasibility and potential usefulness in a particular context. The research utilised decision support, mobile technology and knowledge acquisition concepts, and of particular importance, the areas of context sensitive decision support and advisory systems to develop the prototype. This research developed a new approach towards decision support within the target problem domain. This approach involved utilising context sensitive decision support techniques to represent expert knowledge in a generalised form. This knowledge was then incorporated within a mobile advisory system prototype to address the time critical nature of the target domain. Hospital triage was selected as an example of the time critical problem domain. Expert knowledge was obtained from triage nurses, which was not otherwise detailed in official triage documentation. The prototype system was developed to explore the implementation of the approach and acquired knowledge. Triage nurses were also involved in a qualitative evaluation of the prototype mobile decision support system. The evaluation was aimed at establishing the importance of the contextual components of the system and its suitability within the triage environment. Feedback from the evaluation suggested domain experts' approval of this form of decision support. Comments issued indicate decision support in this form could be of benefit for triage nurses to support their decisions with specific experiential knowledge. The domain experts also indicated that this form of support would be most beneficial for trainee triage nurses whose lack of experience necessitates additional guidance. Another potential application was suggested for the purpose of education of staff in specific knowledge of medical triage. This research contributes to the theory and practice of development of knowledge based mobile decision support systems within such domains where domain knowledge is critical but not well documented. The implementation of generalised guiding contextual rules was found to be useful within a mobile and time critical environment involving ill-defined decision situations. The generalised contextual rules provided safe decision support and in a form that would have minimal impact on the time taken to make decisions. The key concepts within the system which addressed the research questions are generalised contextual rules, context management objects, and an interface that presents guiding information to address time constraints in mobile decision support environment.

Book Synopsis Fusing Decision Support Systems Into the Fabric of the Context by : IOS Press
Download or read book Fusing Decision Support Systems Into the Fabric of the Context written by IOS Press and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2012-06-13 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of Information Systems has been shifting from an ‘immersion view’, which relies on the immersion of information technology (IT) as part of the business environment, to a ‘fusion view’ in which IT is fused within the business environment, forming a unified fabric that integrates work and personal life, as well as personal and public information. In the context of this fusion view, decision support systems should achieve a total alignment with the context and the personal preferences of users. The advantage of such a view is an opportunity of seamless integration between enterprise environments and decision support system components. Thus, researchers and practitioners have to address the challenges of dealing with this shift in viewpoint and its consequences for decision making and decision support systems theories and applications. This book presents the latest innovations and advances in decision support systems with a special focus on the fusion view. These achievements will be of interest to all those involved and interested in decision making practice and research, as well as, more generally, in the fusion view of modern information systems. The book covers a wide range of topical themes including a fusion view of business intelligence and data warehousing, applications of multi-criteria decision analysis, intelligent models and technologies for decision making, knowledge management, decision support approaches and models for emergency management, and medical and other specific domains.

Download or read book Context Sensitive Health Informatics: Many Places, Many Users, Many Contexts, Many Uses written by E.M. Borycki and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2015-08-14 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Context is key in the design, implementation and evaluation of health information technology. Healthcare systems around the world are in transition; adopting technologies to deal with the problems of aging populations, increased numbers of chronically ill patients and limited resources. But a 'one size fits all' approach is not the answer, and may limit those local healthcare system innovations that are so crucial to the development of health informatics. Even the most advanced systems will fail to achieve the desired outcomes if context is not taken into account. This book presents the proceedings of the Context Sensitive Health Informatics (CSHI) conference, held in Curitiba, Brazil, in August 2015. Context sensitive health informatics is about health information technologies and their environments, and the 26 papers included here examine how health informatics systems are developed, implemented and evaluated in a complex environment of many places, many users, many uses and in many contexts. The book is divided into four themes: different users in different contexts; evaluating for context through usability testing and ensuring patient safety; organizational and social issues in different places; and understanding different contexts using theory. This overview of the research and experience critical to ensuring the successful introduction and adaptation of healthcare systems to new countries, contexts and healthcare settings will be of interest to all those involved in improving the quality of healthcare worldwide.
Book Synopsis Decision Support Systems by : Chiang Jao
Download or read book Decision Support Systems written by Chiang Jao and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decision support systems (DSS) have evolved over the past four decades from theoretical concepts into real world computerized applications. DSS architecture contains three key components: knowledge base, computerized model, and user interface. DSS simulate cognitive decision-making functions of humans based on artificial intelligence methodologies (including expert systems, data mining, machine learning, connectionism, logistical reasoning, etc.) in order to perform decision support functions. The applications of DSS cover many domains, ranging from aviation monitoring, transportation safety, clinical diagnosis, weather forecast, business management to internet search strategy. By combining knowledge bases with inference rules, DSS are able to provide suggestions to end users to improve decisions and outcomes. This book is written as a textbook so that it can be used in formal courses examining decision support systems. It may be used by both undergraduate and graduate students from diverse computer-related fields. It will also be of value to established professionals as a text for self-study or for reference.

Book Synopsis Registries for Evaluating Patient Outcomes by : Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality/AHRQ
Download or read book Registries for Evaluating Patient Outcomes written by Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality/AHRQ and published by Government Printing Office. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This User’s Guide is intended to support the design, implementation, analysis, interpretation, and quality evaluation of registries created to increase understanding of patient outcomes. For the purposes of this guide, a patient registry is an organized system that uses observational study methods to collect uniform data (clinical and other) to evaluate specified outcomes for a population defined by a particular disease, condition, or exposure, and that serves one or more predetermined scientific, clinical, or policy purposes. A registry database is a file (or files) derived from the registry. Although registries can serve many purposes, this guide focuses on registries created for one or more of the following purposes: to describe the natural history of disease, to determine clinical effectiveness or cost-effectiveness of health care products and services, to measure or monitor safety and harm, and/or to measure quality of care. Registries are classified according to how their populations are defined. For example, product registries include patients who have been exposed to biopharmaceutical products or medical devices. Health services registries consist of patients who have had a common procedure, clinical encounter, or hospitalization. Disease or condition registries are defined by patients having the same diagnosis, such as cystic fibrosis or heart failure. The User’s Guide was created by researchers affiliated with AHRQ’s Effective Health Care Program, particularly those who participated in AHRQ’s DEcIDE (Developing Evidence to Inform Decisions About Effectiveness) program. Chapters were subject to multiple internal and external independent reviews.
