Arden Syntax v2.10 (Health Level Seven Arden Syntax for Medical Logic Systems, Version 2.10)
DESCRIPTION
The Arden Syntax for Medical Logic Systems Version 2.10 is the latest version of a formalism for clinical knowledge representation that can be used by clinicians, knowledge engineers, administrators and others to implement clinical decision support (CDS) solutions to help improve the quality and safety of care. Arden Syntax can be used to create a knowledge base for CDS systems that, when coupled with patient data, can generate patient-specific CDS interventions for improving patient care. The key change in Version 2.10 over Version 2.9 is inclusion of a normative XML representation for Arden Syntax. This was done because the use of XML facilitates the development of tools such as syntax checkers and editors that can help increase the correctness of executable knowledge modules, and this in turn will foster the augmentation of the development and production environments for Arden, thereby increasing its utility.
