Abstract

The purpose of the current work is to develop metadata for clinical narrative information. For the metadata development, studies were conducted to identify the resources for patient stories. The resource consulted for the current work is the medical journals and case records. With the patient stories, medical narratives were developed. To identify the elements of narration, narrative theories and electronic health records were studied. These elements were identified in the medical narratives developed. By conducting this study, it was found that the medical narratives lack metadata for describing the clinical narration. Thus, metadata elements were composed for the patient-doctor narration. The work stands out by developing a metadata framework for medical narrative information. This framework addresses the lack of metadata for narrative information in a clinical setting. As a result, this research aids in the recording of patient-doctor dialogue.
