SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REAL TIME CLINICAL QUESTIONS PRESENTATION AND MANAGEMENT
First Claim
1. A non-transitory storage medium storing instructions executable by an electronic data processing device (10, 12) to perform a clinical decision support method including:
- associating computer-implemented analytical modules with clinical questions;
computing outputs of computer-implemented analytical modules for a patient; and
displaying information for the patient pertaining to a clinical question comprising outputs computed for the patient of the computer-implemented analytical modules associated with the clinical question.

Abstract
In a clinical decision support method, outputs of computer-implemented analytical modules are computed for a patient. Information is displayed for the patient pertaining to a clinical question comprising outputs computed for the patient of analytical modules associated with the clinical question. The analytical modules may include modules configured to perform in silico genetic/genomic tests using genetic/genome sequencing (whole genome, whole exome, whole transcriptome, targeted gene panels, etc) or microarray data. A clinical question-module matrix (CQ-M matrix) may be generated for the patient associating clinical questions with analytical modules, and the method may further include populating the clinical questions with outputs computed for the patient of the analytical modules associated with the clinical questions by the CQ-M matrix. Such populating advantageously re-uses outputs computed for the patient when an analytical module is associated with two or more different clinical questions by the CQ-M matrix. This system empowers the clinician to focus on the clinical aspects of patient management while allowing the data complexities of patient genomic data interpretation to be handled by the clinical decision support system.
