“…We present a novel approach for integrating information about executed treatment compliance with a CIG (Computer Interpretable Guideline) into views for patient data and guideline structure of CareCruiser [14]. We combine analytical methods to determine compliance and visualization of the results.…”

Clinical guidelines provide recommendations in the form of applicable actions in a specific clinical context. Computer Interpretable Guidelines (CIG) aim to achieve guideline integration into clinical practice to increase health care quality. Analyzing the compliance with a CIG can facilitate the implementation and assist in the design of CIGs, but to help medical experts in the detection of patterns in the wealth of the data is a challenging task. We suggest an approach based on visual analytics, intertwining interactive visualization and automated data analysis i.e. analysis of compliance with a CIG. Our solution covers highlighting and abstraction for time-oriented patient parameters, and aggregation of repeatedly missing actions into intervals; in addition valid, invalid, and missing actions are represented visually. Furthermore, we discuss a case study showing how the applied techniques can assist in the detection of interesting patterns.

“…There have recently been significant advances in the visualization community toward designing techniques for temporal event sequences of electronic health records. CareCruiser is a visualization system to compare EMR data to medical protocols [16]. LifeFlow [17] introduced a way to aggregate multiple event sequences into a tree, and EventFlow [18] later extended this approach to support both point-based and interval-based events.…”

“…Comparing patient data to medical guidelines is a related domain problem and has yielded some designs that combine features from the groups of MIVA and LifeLines (e.g., CareCruiser [11], Midgaard [4]). However, these designs cater more to different tasks than open-ended exploration.…”

Abstract. Medical care, particularly for chronic diseases, accumulates a huge amount of patient data over extensive time periods that needs to be accessed and analyzed accordingly. Information Visualization methods hold great promises in turning data deluge into improved quality of medical care. Yet, patient data management systems mostly provide documents, form-based displays, or static visualizations. We present a design study of an interactive visualization system, called VisuExplore, to support long-term care and medical analysis of patients with chronic diseases. VisuExplore offers interaction techniques for effective exploration of time-oriented data and employs simple, but intuitive visualization techniques. It was developed in close cooperation with physicians. We conducted two user studies with nine physicians and 16 students, which indicate that our design is useful and appropriate for particular tasks.
