2. Overview

2.1. Draw.io Tool mode

The following files can be downloaded and then imported into draw.io as libraries to provide a working palette for TP-VML diagrams.

3. Teamwork

The examples in this section illustrate the use of TP for team-based work plans, including hand-offs, callbacks and other kinds of coordination.

3.1. Out-patient Eye Clinic Encounter

This example is based on the original description of DIPS Eye encounter example.

3.1.1. Plan Overview

As for all Plans defined in the Task Planning formalism, it must be remembered that the Plan definition above is what the TP engine executes. It is the result of the execution (including worker allocation and communication, which is not shown in the definition) that causes workers in the real world to do things. Additionally, what the TP engine knows about the real world is limited to what it is told - many actions and events can occur outside the TP computing environment that will remain unknown to the system unless it is informed (e.g. by Manual notification).

The Work Plan consists of two top-level Task Plans, one for the patient and one for the clinic administrator / reception. The latter has two sub-plans linked by hand-off Tasks.

The purpose of the patient top-level Task Plan is to allow the system to notify the patient of the visit, via a reminder on the day of the visit, or some fixed time beforehand. The driving event is the calendar appointment, which is waited on by both the patient and the clinic admin Task Plans. It is assumed that longer term reminders, opportunities for changing appointments and so on are managed by another system that see the same calendar events, and is responsible for setting the calendar events in the first place. Thus, in the model above, the patient top-level plan is not really necessary (he/she will be notified by the appointment system), and is mainly included for purposes of demonstration.

3.1.2. Detailed Description

The main work of the Work Plan is in the other three Task Plans, which essentially encode the following logic:

Clinic Administrator:

  • clinic has a live Task Plan waiting on appointment A for patient P, at 2019-02-15 09:30:00;

  • when this calendar timepoint is reached, the TP system 'opens' the appointment via a System Request to the clinic appointment system (details not shown);

  • WAIT: the clinic Task Plan enters a new wait state for patient P, for appointment A;

Patient:

  • patient arrives at clinic (modelled as a Manual notification);

Clinic Administrator:

  • receive patient, record presence;

  • Hand-off: pass to consultation (e.g. send to waiting area);

  • WAIT: until manual notification (patient returns)

Nurse:

  • receive patient & check EMR

  • review eye function, decide on whether to send to doc or not:

    • EITHER: return to reception

    • OR: pass to doctor

Specialist:

  • receive patient and check EMR

  • perform examination

  • update EMR

  • send patient back to reception.

4. Order Management

The examples in this section illustrate the use of TP for order management, where openEHR Instructions and Actions (or other non-openEHR equivalents) are created and tracked.

4.1. Order Coordination

This example is based on a standard Moscow City clinic protocol, and covers a 12 month period.

4.1.1. Plan Overview

The Work Plan shown above defines the tasks for a 'standard health check' that includes a chest x-ray, a full blood panel and a hypertension checkup. The Plan executes over the periof a year, and consists of a health coordinator creating orders for the three items, via UI forms. The result of creating these orders will be the creation of a normal Composition and Instruction in the openEHR EHR for the patient. At some later point in time, the coordinator will action these orders, which will cause the EHR data to be used to create appropriate API calls / messages to the relevant target systems (radiology clinic, pathology lab, consultant) that will further cause appointments and attendances in the normal way by the patient. Each of these 'execute order' Tasks will block and wait for appropriate callbacks resulting from each of the orders being fulfilled and corresponding Actions being committed to the EHR (or else timeouts, if nothing happens). With the received results, the coordinator creates a health summary for the patient and commits that to the EHR.

5. Multi-drug Chemotherapy

This section illustrates multi-drug chemotherapy with complex dosing and timing arrangements.

This example is based on the version of RCHOPS-21 documented by NHS Thames Valley Cancer Network.

5.1. Limitations

The following elements of the plan are not yet included (mainly for brevity of the example):

  • Vincristine dose modification due to hepatic impairment;

  • Concurrent meds only shown in summarised form;

  • Exception pathways to handle patient reactions not shown.

5.2. Plan Definition

The following shows the pre-medication phase.

The following shows the main regime, including conditional addition of Rituximab / methotrexate for high IPI patients.

10. qRisk3-2017

This stroke/heart attack risk calculator was developed in the UK by University of Nottingham and EMIS (a major GP EMR supplier). An online calculator is visible here. The algorithm is published as a PHP program. See also this article.

What we can show here is how to represent the algorithm in a way that clinicians can directly understand, and indeed, could develop and maintain, given appropriate tools.

10.1. Decision Logic Module

This DLM is a fairly literal rendering of the algorithm at the above link, with a cleaner representation of the scale factors, and a bit of vector math.

11. National Early Warning Score (NEWS) 2

This CPG was developed from the Royal College of Physicians (RCP) NEWS2 guideline (2017).

11.1. Work Plan

The work plan part of NEWS2 is mainly based on the clinical response part of the guideline, reproduced below.
