Assisting Data Retrieval with a Drug Knowledge Graph.

The Normandy health data warehouse EDSaN integrates the medication orders from the University Hospital of Rouen (France). This study aims at describing the design and the evaluation of an information retrieval system founded on a complex and semantically augmented knowledge graph dedicated to EDSaN drugs' prescriptions. The system is intended to help the selection of drugs in the search process by health professionals. The manual evaluation of the relevance of the returned drugs showed encouraging results as expected. A deeper analysis in order to improve the ranking method is needed and will be performed in a future work.
