Facility for importing a machine-readable data model, particularly medical guidelines, into a workflow management system
First Claim
1. A facility for adapting a machine-readable data model for import into a clinical workflow management system in an institution, comprising:
- an interface for reading in the data model; and
at least one of, a mapping system including a work step database containing a hierarchic breakdown of work steps, and a mapping module for mapping work steps in the read in data model, which belong to a different hierarchic level than the level used in the workflow management system, by polling the work step database for work steps on the hierarchic level of the workflow management system, an association system comprising a resource database containing an association between generic resource titles in the data model and actual resources in the institution, and an association module for translating generic resource titles in the read in data model into actual resources in the institution by polling the resource database; and
a provision module for providing a machine-readable data model, aligned after handling by at least one of the mapping system and the association system.

Abstract
A facility is for adapting a machine-readable data model, particularly medical guidelines, for import into a clinical workflow management system. The facility includes a mapping system including a work step database, with a hierarchic breakdown of work steps. It further includes at least one of a mapping module which maps work steps in the data model which has been read in, which belong to a different hierarchic level than the level used in the system, by polling the work step database for work steps on the hierarchic level of the system, and/or an association system including a resource database, which contains an association between generic resource titles in the data model and actual resources in the institution. Finally, the facility includes an association module which translates generic resource titles in the data model which has been read in into actual resources in the institution by polling the resource database. As such, it allows automated, computer-aided import of medical guidelines, in particular, into clinical workflow management systems with reduced time and work involvement.
