Abstract

Traditional clinical guideline-based decision support systems (DSS)
provide patient-specific recommendations to care providers during clinical encounters. In the MobiGuide project we extend this functionality to develop a se-
cure guideline-based ubiquitous guidance system (UGS) which provides per-
sonalized guidance to patients and shared decision-making, any time and everywhere, while addressing also non-clinical patient context. Guided by these objectives, and following a top-down approach, we developed a generic, distributed, service-oriented architecture (SOA) for UGS. We propose this architecture as a starting point for UGSs in other clinical domains and healthcare settings. We compare our UGS architecture with existing architectures for DSSs.
