Clinical guidelines (GLs) play an important role in medical practice, and computerized support to GLs is now one of the most central areas of research in Artificial Intelligence in medicine. In recent years, many groups have developed different computer-assisted management systems of GL. Each approach has its own peculiarities and thus a comparison is necessary. Many possible aspects can be analyzed, but a first analysis has probably to consider the GL models, i.e. the representation formalisms provided. To this end, Peleg and al. [4] have analyzed and compared six different frameworks. In this paper, we analyse also GLARE and GPROVE on the basis of the same methodology. Moreover, we extend such analysis by considering the tools and the facilities that GLARE and GPROVE provide to support the use of GLs. The final goal of our analysis is to exploit the differences between these two systems and if they can be fruitfully integrated.

Abstract
Clinical guidelines (GLs) play an important role in medical practice, and computerized support to GLs is now one of the most central areas of research in Artificial Intelligence in medicine. In recent years, many groups have developed different computer-assisted management systems of GL. Each approach has its own peculiarities and thus a comparison is necessary. Many possible aspects can be analyzed, but a first analysis has probably to consider the GL models, i.e. the representation formalisms provided. To this end, Peleg and al. [4] have analyzed and compared six different frameworks. In this paper, we analyse also GLARE and GPROVE on the basis of the same methodology. Moreover, we extend such analysis by considering the tools and the facilities that GLARE and GPROVE provide to support the use of GLs. The final goal of our analysis is to exploit the differences between these two systems and if they can be fruitfully integrated.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
