Resum
Clinical guidelines have been developed with different aims and interests related to healthcare quality improvement. The development of storage mechanisms concerning the application of guidelines can provide significant benefits to healthcare. In this paper, we present a Model Driven Development (MDD) based approach for the automatic generation of storage structures for recording the information generated during the application of clinical guidelines. The work presented is part of a larger project which aims at developing decision support systems for the application of guidelines. Our approach is illustrated with a Spanish guideline based on a guideline published by the National Guidelines Clearing House (NGC). © 2008 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.
