Abstract
A system and method are provided for use in evaluating a clinical guideline which is represented in a machine readable version by a decision tree comprising at least one node and a decision rule associated with the node. The decision rule comprises at least one variable representing a biomedical quantity. The biomedical quantity is extracted from the patient data using an ontology which defines concepts and their relationships in a medical domain of the clinical guideline and which thereby relates the variable of the decision rule to the patient data. If said extraction is not possible, a view of the patient data is presented to the user to enable the user to determine the biomedical quantity from the view. Advantageously, the user is assisted in evaluating the clinical guideline even when it is not possible to automatically extract the biomedical quantity from the patient data.
