| Popis: | Introduction: One of the most effective ways to improve the management of asthma in primary care is using guidelines in the patient management process; but due to lack of time, their use is very limited. One way to solve this problem is mechanized guideline in a form of decision-support system that requires computer-interpreted guideline (CIG). In this study, a CIG was developed for asthma management in primary care. Methods: This qualitative study was performed using mini-Delphi method uses a workflow-based approach to develop a CIG. The workflows and data components were extracted through Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) language and Enterprise Architecture (EA) software. Afterwards, they were confirmed through an expert panel of five asthma specialists. Results: The developed CIG included three major workflows, four sub-workflows, and 21 data components. Main workflows included treatment, drug interaction, and follow-up time. Sub-workflows were related to treatment workflow that were developed based on the patient visit number and age. Conclusion: Because the accuracy of this workflow was confirmed by asthma specialists, it is expected that the design of this CIG will lead to development of a cost-effective software for the management of asthma and better detection of drug interactions. |
