Clinical process models utilising prescription data, focussing on therapeutic decisions [125], polypharmacy [126], chronic comorbidities [127], and drug interactions in chronic disease [128, 129]. [126] identifies potential strong drug interactions in nearly 40% of patients, while [127] finds a statistical association between a particular initial treatment and a subsequent comorbidity. [128, 129] identify a particular change of medication associated with a subsequent acute episode in previously stable patients
