Current problem: users might not find medications easily because of rather complicated drug classes

Possible solutions (ordered by implementation effort):

  1. Also use indications (problem: might result in "false positives" because of more extensive formulations rather than keywords; indication not shown in list, not clear why popping up)
  2. Add more generic drug classes to current drug classes that are easier to understand (either (a) add to present ones, e.g., "Anti-depressant (selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor, SSRI)"; or (b) add generic drug classes [would result in building an own ontology, could also re-use existing ones in the future (?)])
  3. Add keywords to search for in Anni (same problem as in 1, currently not shown in list and further details might be too much information)

Currently would think 2(a) the most feasible one; not sure whether required for study (rather not)

Decision in meeting with Aniwaa yesterday: will not change this for the study; patients search by names anyways
