Abstract

Patients with chronic multimorbidity require physicians to develop complex management plans that address potential interactions among the patient’s morbidities and medications. We developed GoCom, a goal-oriented methodology for providing decision-support for multimorbidity patients which detects and mitigates interactions among recommendations stemming from multiple clinical guidelines, consults medical ontologies and relies on patient-information standards. We present GoCom’s conceptual goal-model and reasoning patterns that aggregate and visualize non-conflicted mitigated therapies as option-sets that meet the multimorbidity goals.
