Gestión del conocimiento en salud: revisión sistemática de la literaturaEl conocimiento ha sido utilizado como recurso en la planificación de acciones inteligentes y eficaces en las organizaciones. El interés en investigar procesos de gestión de conocimiento se ha intensificado en diversas áreas. Fue desarrollada una revisión sistemática de la literatura, basada en la cuestión: ¿Cuáles son las contribuciones de las publicaciones en revistas brasileñas e internacionales sobre gestión de conocimiento en salud? La muestra abarcó a 32 ítems que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión.Los resultados mostraron que el 78% de las revistas que publicaron sobre el tema son internacionales, 77% de los investigadores actúan en la educación superior y 65% tiene título de doctor. Los textos originaron a cinco categorías temáticas, siendo las principales: desarrollo de sistemas de gestión del conocimiento en salud (37,5%), discusiones sobre la aplicación de la gestión del conocimiento en salud (28,1%) y función del enfermero en la gestión del conocimiento (18,7%).Descriptores: Gestión del Conocimiento; Gestión del Conocimiento para la Investigación en Salud; Recursos Humanos; Enfermería; Organizaciones en Salud.

“…These sources include patient data, possibly in different formats and databases, and existing medical knowledge (available texts, journals, and clinical guidelines). Moreover, there is provision for acquiring and representing the tacit medical knowledge and experiences of domain experts [31]. In the Knowledge Acquisition Interface, the collected knowledge is formalized in terms of Semantic Web representation, including RDF triples, OWL ontologies, and Semantic Web (SPIN [32]) rules.…”

Semantics-based plausible reasoning to extend the knowledge coverage of medical knowledge bases for improved clinical decision support

Background: Capturing complete medical knowledge is challenging-often due to incomplete patient Electronic Health Records (EHR), but also because of valuable, tacit medical knowledge hidden away in physicians' experiences. To extend the coverage of incomplete medical knowledge-based systems beyond their deductive closure, and thus enhance their decision-support capabilities, we argue that innovative, multi-strategy reasoning approaches should be applied. In particular, plausible reasoning mechanisms apply patterns from human thought processes, such as generalization, similarity and interpolation, based on attributional, hierarchical, and relational knowledge. Plausible reasoning mechanisms include inductive reasoning, which generalizes the commonalities among the data to induce new rules, and analogical reasoning, which is guided by data similarities to infer new facts. By further leveraging rich, biomedical Semantic Web ontologies to represent medical knowledge, both known and tentative, we increase the accuracy and expressivity of plausible reasoning, and cope with issues such as data heterogeneity, inconsistency and interoperability. In this paper, we present a Semantic Web-based, multi-strategy reasoning approach, which integrates deductive and plausible reasoning and exploits Semantic Web technology to solve complex clinical decision support queries. Results: We evaluated our system using a real-world medical dataset of patients with hepatitis, from which we randomly removed different percentages of data (5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%) to reflect scenarios with increasing amounts of incomplete medical knowledge. To increase the reliability of the results, we generated 5 independent datasets for each percentage of missing values, which resulted in 20 experimental datasets (in addition to the original dataset). The results show that plausibly inferred knowledge extends the coverage of the knowledge base by, on average, 2%, 7%, 12%, and 16% for datasets with, respectively, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% of missing values. This expansion in the KB coverage allowed solving complex disease diagnostic queries that were previously unresolvable, without losing the correctness of the answers. However, compared to deductive reasoning, data-intensive plausible reasoning mechanisms yield a significant performance overhead.

Systematic review of knowledge acquisition and representation techniques

The need to create mechanisms or systems to acquire, represent, and convey knowledge is one of the problems that have been given priority over years of research; the need for acquisition has generated the need for more compact models that conserve implicit and explicit knowledge generated within organizations. Within this environment, due to changes generated by knowledge management, enterprises recognize the importance of managing these intangible assets as a requirement to stay in the market and adapt to organizational and technological changes. Each organization must find its own way and recognize that intellectual capacity has become an important factor for the success of organizational development. The aim of this paper was to present the results of a systematic literature review through which we identified some knowledge acquisition and representation techniques that can be replicated in organizations to leverage internal and external knowledge to the organization and achieve sustainable competitive advantages. The results present administrative techniques related to organizational culture and values, as well as the definition of different types of alliances also identified as expert system technologies and social tools useful for knowledge acquisition and representation.Key words: Knowledge Management, Knowledge Acquisition, Knowledge Representation, organizational development ResumenLa necesidad de crear mecanismos o sistemas que permitan adquirir, representar y transmitir el conocimiento es uno de los problemas con prioridad que se ha dado en el transcurrir de los años de investigación; esta necesidad de adquisición ha generado la necesidad de contar con modelos más compactos que permitan conservar el conocimiento implícito y explicito que se genera dentro de las organizaciones. En este entorno, debido al cambio que ha generado la gestión del conocimiento, las empresas reconocen la importancia que tiene el manejo de estos bienes intangibles, como requisito para permanecer en el mercado y adaptarse a cambios organizativos y tecnológicos, cada organización debe encontrar su propio camino y reconocer que la capacidad intelectual se ha convertido en un factor importante para el éxito del desarrollo organizacional.

Los resultados presentan técnicas administrativas relacionadas con la cultura y valores organizativos, así como la definición de diferentes tipos de alianzas, asimismo se identificaron tecnologías como los sistemas expertos y las herramientas sociales como útiles para la adquisición y representación de conocimiento.Palabras clave: Adquisición del Conocimiento, Desarrollo organizativo, Gestión del conocimiento, Representaciones de conocimi...
