Abstract: We have developed the GLEE system for execution of guidelines encoded in GLIF3 format. This system can be integrated with a local clinical information system through standard interfaces to EMRs and clinical applications. The execution model of GLEE takes the “system suggests and user controls” approach. A tracing system is used to record the state of guideline steps and their transitions. The GLEE system provides an internal event-driven execution model that can be hooked up with a clinical event monitor in local environment. We discussed the execution flexibility provided by GLEE and issues related to its integration with a local clinical information system. Potential use of the GLEE system includes clinical decision support, quality assurance, guideline development and medical education.
