Adherence to Guidelines Supported by Process Mining

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingsConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Background: Adherence to clinical guidelines supports high quality patient care. Conformance checking, a feature of process mining, can potentially automate the assessment of adherence to clinical guidelines in practice. Objectives: This paper investigates appropriate conformance checking in practice. Methods: Conformance checking in practice was simulated with generated test data, a FHIR server and process mining tools. A corresponding literature review was conducted in parallel. Results: Activities of clinical guidelines or in healthcare processes should be coded using clinical nomenclature to support conformance checking. Conclusion: SNOMED CT should be used as a nomenclature and activities should be coded with SNOMED concepts of the type “procedure”.
