论文摘要
流程挖掘的学科在医疗保健领域成功应用程序具有可靠的记录。在这样的研究领域,我们进行了与德国Uniklinik Aachen医院的重症监护病房(ICU)病房有关的案例研究。这项工作的目的是双重的:开发一个规范模型,该模型代表了COVID-19患者治疗的临床指南,并分析观察到的行为(记录在医院的信息系统中)对此类准则的依从性。我们表明,通过一致性检查技术,可以分析Covid-19患者的护理过程,并强调与临床准则的主要偏差。结果为医生提供了改善过程并确保服务质量和患者满意度的有用指示。我们将结果模型作为开源BPMN文件共享。
The discipline of process mining has a solid track record of successful applications to the healthcare domain. Within such research space, we conducted a case study related to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) ward of the Uniklinik Aachen hospital in Germany. The aim of this work is twofold: developing a normative model representing the clinical guidelines for the treatment of COVID-19 patients, and analyzing the adherence of the observed behavior (recorded in the information system of the hospital) to such guidelines. We show that, through conformance checking techniques, it is possible to analyze the care process for COVID-19 patients, highlighting the main deviations from the clinical guidelines. The results provide physicians with useful indications for improving the process and ensuring service quality and patient satisfaction. We share the resulting model as an open-source BPMN file.
