Abstract
Clinical decision-making can be vastly improved with the availability of the right medical knowledge at the right time. This concept paper presents a knowledge management research program to (a) identify, capture and organize the tacit knowledge inherent within on-line problem-solving discussions between pediatric pain practitioners; (b) establish linkages between topic-specific pediatric pain discussions and corresponding published medical literature on children's pain available at PubMed-i.e. linking tacit expert knowledge to explicit medical literature; and (c) make these knowledge resources available to pediatric pain practitioners via the WWW for timely access to various modalities of clinical knowledge.
