Abstract:
1. One or more non-transitory computer-storage media having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed, perform a method in a computer system of generating a visualization model used to display clinical relationships between a plurality of physical entity elements and a physical entity of interest, the method comprising: retrieving properties for each of the entity elements and the entity of interest, the properties including at least one activity type indicative of clinical contact between each of the entity elements and the entity of interest; calculating a frequency for the at least one activity type, wherein the frequency is a quantity of times the at least one activity type is performed by each entity element; weighting the at least one activity type based on a desired clinical relevance, wherein the desired clinical relevance represents clinical decision-making ability of each entity element where entity elements with clinical decision-making relevance are identified as being associated with directly physical and invasive activity types including performing a healthcare procedure on the entity of interest rather than indirect activity types including opening a chart associated with the entity of interest; calculating a clinical relevance score for each entity element based on the at least one activity type, the frequency for the at least one activity type, and the weight of the at least one activity type; and generating a visualization model using the retrieved properties of each entity element and the calculated clinical relevance scores, the model representing the clinical relationship and clinical relevance of each entity element relative to the entity of interest.
