The
IndexiGuide tool: Semantic Classification of Guidelines
Introduction: To facilitate
guideline retrieval, the medical expert indexes the guideline document
by one or more intermediate or leaf nodes within one or more external
(indexing) semantic axes trees, using the IndexiGuide tool. Currently,
the semantic axes are:
- symptoms and signs (e.g., hypertension)
- diagnostic findings (e.g., blood-cell
counts)
- disorders (e.g., endocrine disorders,
neoplasms)
- treatments (e.g., antibiotic therapy,
surgery)
- body systems and regions (e.g., pituitary
gland)
- guideline types (e.g., screening, prevention,
management)
- guideline specialties (e.g., internal
medicine). Semantic axes are typically headers of standardized
vocabularies such as MeSH, ICD-9 or CPT.
