Computer Interpretable Guidelines (CIG) have largely contributed to the simplification and dissemination of clinical guidelines. However, the formalization of CIG contents, especially care actions, is still an open issue. Actually, this information, which is the heart of the guideline, is still expressed as free text and therefore prevents the development of intelligent tools for assisting physicians defining treatments. In this paper, we introduce a framework for formalizing care actions using natural language processing techniques, Semantic Web technologies and medical standards.
