> *Drools Enhancements In Support of Real-Time Clinical Decision Support.*
>
> Distributed Decision Support Services and Knowledge Management Repository
> (KMR-II) is a second generation Clinical Decision Support (CDS) platform for
> healthcare environments. This presentation will provide a brief overview of
> the overall architecture and then discuss in more detail specific
> enhancements to Drools that enables it to better support rule execution
> using standards-based object models, semantics, and data structures. KMR
> extends Drools with Predictive Model Markup Language (PMML), Grid
> Services, and Semantic Web technologies within an agent architecture. KMR-II
> provides integrated knowledge management, analytic, and predictive modeling
> capabilities critical to the immediate and long-term care of our patients.
> As a sophisticated, standards-based Clinical Decision Support environment,
> it is uniquely suited to deliver “knowledge services” that can be layered on
> a variety of health information networks.

> *Emergency Services in action.*
>
> The application was created to represent complex scenarios that are being
> exe-cuted by an Emergency Services company that deals with concurrent
> emergencies within a city. The company needs to solve different situations
> where different entities need to be coordinated to deal with an emergency
> situation. The Emergency Services Application shows how we can provide a
> tool that helps the company to improve their services by giving them full
> visibility of their actions, traceability of their resources, suggestions
> and advice based on the con-text without sacrifficing any degree of
> exibility that they need to solve real life situations.

> *Speed Saves Lives: Leveraging a massively parallel expert system for
> patient surveillance*
>
> Pharmacy OneSource is a SaaS provider of applications for hospital pharmacy
> and infection prevention professionals. This case study will discuss the
> steps taken to develop a next-generation patient surveillance platform that
> allows clinicians to accurately detect risk factors, and perform
> interventions. The platform leverages the GigaSpaces implementation of
> Tuple-space and the Drools rule engine to create a massively parallel expert
> system. This architecture allows for customizable handling of millions of
> HL7 messages per day, evaluation of thousands of clinician created business
> rules, and reasoning over hundreds of thousands of patient data facts to
> provide near-real-time surveillance.

>
> *Medicare and Medicaid look to rules for the future of healthcare*
>
> The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), an agency of the
> Federal government, has aggressive plans to modernize healthcare
> administrative systems and Electronic Healthcare Records (EHR).
>
> The use of Rules and Business Process Management are a focal point for the
> new systems. This session will describe how Medicare and Medicaid work and
> how the government (Federal and State) is looking for Rules and BPM to help
> change both the administrative and clinical environments. This session will
> look at the Medicaid Information Technology Architecture (MITA) and how
> Rules and BPM can augment this Service Oriented Architecture. We will
> discuss how to get involved in some of the many projects that are currently
> underway.

> *Part 1 - Health IT, Informatics, and Rich Information Structures -
> working with ontologies in the Health space*
>
> 1.1) What Health IT is and what it isn't - why health IT is hard
>
> 1.2) Standards and Health IT - the RIM, vocabularies, CDA and standardizing
> information
>
> 1.3) The changing nature of Health IT - Disecting a typical health system
> design and why using ontologies makes sense
>
> 1.4) Why ontologies and information models are not enough - Why we need
> rule-based systems and architecture to build extensible IT solutions
>
> *Part 2 - Ontologies for the working Health IT shop - working with
> ontologies in a development and production environment*
>
> 2.1) Examining system design - using ontologies and rule-based systems with
> rich information structures in a distributed setting
>
> 2.2) Why good developers have trouble in Health IT - where java and other
> frameworks are great, and where rich information ties you down
>
> 2.3) An example rule based system - dealing with DVT in a clinical setting
>
> 2.4) Towards an industrial-strength development framework - Working with
> ontologies and rules in health IT
> Kris Verlaenen Red Hat
>
> *Clinical Pathways for doing Clinical Decision Support (CDS)*
>
> This presentation will describe how you can use *clinical pathways* to
> describe the treatment of patients. The pathways are usually the combination
> of processes describing the overall plan (for example using a flow chart
> approach but other representations like a time-task-matrix are possible as
> well) and rules adding additional constraints. It takes advantages of some
> of the more advanced features of jBPM5 to create flexible and adaptive,
> domain-specific processes that integration closely with rules.*
