Welcome to OpenClinical.net

Methods and technologies to author, maintain, publish, trial and deploy enactable knowledge applications for healthcare

 

OpenClinical.net was set up as an extension to OpenClinical.org, a web portal which aims to promote awareness and use of decision support and other knowledge-based technologies in patient care and clinical research.

 

OpenClinical.org has a particular focus on methods and technologies to support the development of computer-interpretable guidelines. OpenClinical.net’s mission is to demonstrate ways in which these can be used to support the development and deployment of guideline-based services in healthcare.

 

OpenClinical.net offers methods and tools for publishing and disseminating knowledge applications for healthcare to the wider community. For those researchers and clinicians interested in contributing, we provide software download services.  

 

We present example applications to run on this site. The first demonstrators have been developed using the PROforma language and associated Tallis tools for developing and enacting clinical knowledge applications, though we plan to offer other technologies in the future.
