Integration of Resources

• Drug orders: to Micromedex, Medline

• Culture results: to Medline

• Sensitivities: to Micromedex, Medline

• X-rays to: to X-rays, Medline, U. of Utah

• Lab results: to DXplain

• EMR: to cholesterol guideline, mammography guideline

Summary

• On-line information sources exist• Automated retrievals are possible• Linking the patient-specific record to

patient-relevant medical knowledge• Further study needed:

– how to anticipate questions– how to find the right resources– how to compose search strategies– how to present results
