Focused ePI (f(ePI))

f(ePI) (Focused ePI) is the final personalized output of the Focusing process, adapted for a specific patient's context through Lens execution.

Creation Process​

p(ePI) + IPS + PV → LEE with Lens → f(ePI)

Characteristics​

Personalized​

Adapted for individual patient based on:

  • Clinical conditions from IPS
  • Demographics and preferences from PV
  • Medical history and medications

Visually Enhanced​

Contains attention detail modifications:

  • "highlight" classes on relevant sections
  • "collapse" classes on irrelevant sections
  • Standard presentation for general content

Supplemented​

May include added content:

  • Hyperlinks to Supporting Material
  • Embedded images, videos, pictograms
  • Interactive glossary elements
  • Tooltips and explanatory content

Regulatory-Compliant​

  • Original ePI text unchanged
  • No content removed or altered
  • Only visual presentation modified
  • All information remains accessible

Structure​

f(ePI) maintains the ePI Bundle structure with modifications:

<!-- Original p(ePI) section -->
<p class="pregnancy-warning">Do not use during pregnancy.</p>

<!-- f(ePI) for pregnant patient -->
<p class="pregnancy-warning highlight">
  Do not use during pregnancy.
  <a href="/sm/pregnancy-alternatives">Alternative medications</a>
</p>

<!-- f(ePI) for male patient -->
<p class="pregnancy-warning collapse">Do not use during pregnancy.</p>

Ephemeral Nature​

f(ePI) is NOT cached because:

  • Specific to one patient context
  • Patient data may change
  • Different for each request
  • Privacy considerations

Implication: Focusing process runs every time, requiring Lenses to be computationally efficient.

Delivery​

f(ePI) is returned to:

  • Patient-facing applications
  • Mobile apps
  • Web interfaces
  • Healthcare provider systems

Rendering​

Applications render f(ePI) based on:

  • CSS class interpretations
  • Platform capabilities (web, mobile)
  • User preferences (font size, contrast)
  • Accessibility requirements

Quality Assurance​

f(ePI) can be inspected using:
