abstract = {Managing comorbid conditions, i.e., patients with multiple medical conditions, is quite challenging for Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS) based on computerized Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG). In case of comorbidity, CDSS will need to recommend treatments from multiple different CPG, which may adversely interact (e.g., drug-disease interactions), or introduce inefficiencies. A-priori, static integration of computerized comorbid CPG is insufficient for clinical practice. In this paper, we present a solution for dynamic integration of CPG in response to evolving health profiles. Using Description and Transaction Logics, we define a set of CIG integration semantics for encoding integration decisions that cope with comorbidity issues at execution-time. These dynamic, transaction-based semantics are well-suited to roll back prior decisions when no longer safe or efficient; or, inversely, apply new decisions when relevant. Moreover, comorbid CIG integration should consider temporal properties of CIG tasks—at execution-time, these properties will be influenced by a range of temporal constraints. Given all temporal constraints, optimal task schedules will be calculated that will determine the feasibility of CIG integration decisions.},

However, the outcomes of the treatment depending on the involvement of the family, to continue the activities at home on a daily basis. To empower and educate parents of children with neurodevelopmental delays to administer standardized early stimulation programs at home, we developed a mobile early stimulation program that provides timely and evidence-based clinical decision support to health professionals and a personalized guidance to parents about how to administer early stimulation to their child at home.},

abstract = {Chronic diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. It is well understood that if modifiable risk factors are targeted, most chronic diseases can be prevented. Lifetime health is an emerging health paradigm that aims to assist individuals to achieve desired health targets, and avoid harmful lifecycle choices to mitigate the risk of chronic diseases. Early risk identification is central to lifetime health. In this paper, we present a digital health-based platform (PRISM) that leverages artificial intelligence, data visualization and mobile health technologies to empower citizens to self-assess, self-monitor and self-manage their overall risk of major chronic diseases and pursue personalized chronic disease prevention programs. PRISM offers risk assessment tools for 5 chronic conditions, 2 psychiatric disorders and 8 different cancers.},

abstract = {Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. Generally, the therapeutic options for managing AF include the use of anticoagulant drugs that prevent the coagulation of blood. New Oral Anticoagulants (NOACs) are not optimally prescribed to patients, despite their efficacy. In Canada, NOAC medications are not directly available to patients who belong to provincial benefits programs, rather a NOAC special authorization process establishes the eligibility of a patient to receive a NOAC and be paid by the provincial Pharmacare program. This special authorization process is tedious and paper-based which inhibits physicians to prescribe NOAC leading to suboptimal AF care to patients. In this paper, we present a computerized NOAC Authorization Decision Support System (NOAC-ADSS), accessible to physicians to help them (a) determine a patient eligibility for NOAC based on Canadian AF clinical guidelines, and (b) complete the special authorization form. We present a semantic web based system to ontologically model the NOAC eligibility criteria and execute the knowledge to determine a patient NOAC eligibility and dosage},

abstract = {In this paper, we present a semantic web based knowledge engineering approach to extend the coverage of medical knowledge-based systems in order to solve complex medical queries that demand the integration of deterministic and plausible knowledge.  We leverage plausible reasoning mechanisms, which exploit associations between the underlying domain-specific data, as well as tentative domain knowledge, to extend the coverage of a medical knowledge base. We demonstrate that Semantic Web technologies, due to their efficient solutions for federated data management and built-in DL-based inferencing methods, offer useful opportunities to support plausible reasoning for medical decision support tasks. We evaluated our multi-strategy medical reasoning approach using real-world medical data. Our results illustrate that plausible reasoning improved the knowledge coverage of the original medical knowledge base by 10-12%, and in turn helped to solve complex disease diagnostic queries.},
