Abstract0427071Title: Improving the Safety and Efficiency of Medical ProcessesPI: Lori A. ClarkeCollaborative: 0426942 Henneman, PhilipRecent insights into the extent of medical error, coupled with dramatic increases in healthcare costs and a worsening nursing shortage, provide evidence of the need to develop new healthcare processes. Working with experts on medical safety and building upon past accomplishments in process languages and software verification, this project will develop visual process representations for critical paths of care that capture the morass of exceptional situations and the inherent multi-tasking undertaken by extremely busy medical professionals. Appropriate representations will be developed to guide medical professionals as well as provide the basis for analysis and evaluation leading to safety and efficiency improvements. This approach will be evaluated using a number of medical processes. The evaluation will first involve static analysis approaches that will look for potential problems and inefficiencies. The resulting improved processes will then be used to drive a simulation environment involving actual medical personnel in role-playing situations. The results of this research should help reduce healthcare costs, improve medical outcomes, and support the training of medical personnel. Moreover, the process definitions and analysis capabilities that arise from the proposed work should be applicable for reducing errors and improving efficiency in a wide variety of human-computer application areas.

摘要0427071标题：提高医疗过程的安全性和效率PI： 洛里A.克拉克协作： 0426942 Henneman，PhilipRecent insights into the extent of medical error，再加上医疗成本的急剧增加和日益严重的护理短缺，提供了证据表明需要开发新的医疗保健流程。该项目将与医疗安全专家合作，并在过去在过程语言和软件验证方面取得的成就的基础上，为关键护理路径开发可视化过程表示，以捕捉异常情况的沼泽和极其忙碌的医疗专业人员所承担的固有多任务。将制定适当的陈述，以指导医疗专业人员，并为分析和评价提供基础，从而提高安全性和效率。这种方法将使用一些医疗过程进行评估。评估将首先涉及静态分析方法，以寻找潜在的问题和效率低下的情况。由此产生的改进过程将被用来驱动一个模拟环境，涉及实际的医疗人员在角色扮演的情况。这项研究的结果应该有助于降低医疗成本，改善医疗结果，并支持医疗人员的培训。此外，从拟议的工作中产生的过程定义和分析能力，应适用于减少错误和提高效率，在各种各样的人机应用领域。
