Description:
OPTImAL is a reusable formal model of factors affecting CVD patient adherence to physical activity and exercise. Its basis relies on the analysis of published evidence and enables identification of adherence based on the patient profile. In the model, the patient profile is seen from the perspective of 60 multidimensional aspects.
Overview:
OPTImAL describes relations of 320 factors originated from 60 multidimensional aspects (e.g., social, clinical, psychological, etc.) affecting CVD (cardiovascular disease patient adherence to physical activity and exercise. OPTImAL was developed following the Ontology Development 101 methodology and refined based on the NeOn framework.
Objectives:
Formal model that includes 142 classes, ten object properties, and 371 individuals, that describes the relations of different factors of CVD patient profile to adherence and adherence quality, as well as the associated types and dimensions of physical activity and exercise. 2637 logical axioms were constructed to comprise the overall concepts that the ontology defines. The ontology was successfully validated for its consistency and preliminary evaluated for its appropriateness and usefulness in medical practice.
