Health Decisions in Aging Older individuals often face complex health decisions involving significant risk of morbidity and/or mortality Patient participation is desirable in such decisions Clinicians’ ability to facilitate shared decision making varies Older individuals often face complex health decisions involving significant risk of morbidity and/or mortality Patient participation is desirable in such decisions Clinicians’ ability to facilitate shared decision making varies

Atrial Fibrillation Atrial fibrillation leads to a significant risk of stroke, ranging from 1% to 15% per year, based on patient factors Anticoagulation therapy (warfarin) can reduce the risk of stroke by approximately two thirds, but incurs a risk of major bleeding complications of 1% to 3% per year Atrial fibrillation leads to a significant risk of stroke, ranging from 1% to 15% per year, based on patient factors Anticoagulation therapy (warfarin) can reduce the risk of stroke by approximately two thirds, but incurs a risk of major bleeding complications of 1% to 3% per year

HDA Limitations Typically designed for one type of health decision May not provide patient-specific information on alternatives and risks May be only accessible in particular settings Does not have readily modifiable design Typically designed for one type of health decision May not provide patient-specific information on alternatives and risks May be only accessible in particular settings Does not have readily modifiable design

Web Ontology Language A Semantic Web standard to use ontologies to represent knowledge on the Internet OWL can be used to build ontologies of high- level descriptions, based on three concepts: Classes (e.g., Influence Diagram, Nodes, Patient) Properties (e.g., has_node, has_disease) Individuals (e.g., “atrial fibrilaton”) A Semantic Web standard to use ontologies to represent knowledge on the Internet OWL can be used to build ontologies of high- level descriptions, based on three concepts: Classes (e.g., Influence Diagram, Nodes, Patient) Properties (e.g., has_node, has_disease) Individuals (e.g., “atrial fibrilaton”)
