The aim of applying science into practice is to deliver high-quality health care.Thinking about teaching the necessary accompanying skills, a distinction can bemade between using evidence for individual patient care and using scientificknowledge for the development of protocols or guidelines for groups of patients orprofessionals. In this paper, these two ways of applying science into practice arebeing considered. We plea for explicating the differences between the individualpatient and a group of patients or professionals when applying scientific knowledgein the decision-making process. The acknowledgment of these differences facilitates the teaching of the accompanying competences and different CanMEDS roles.
Bij interdisciplinair samenwerken wordt er integraal vanuit gezamenlijke vakgebieden naar een probleem gekeken. Een belangrijk onderdeel hierin is het betrekken van de burger en diens netwerk/vrijwilligers om beslissingen te nemen middels shared-decision-making. Het betrekken van de burger in het interdisciplinair overleg is gemakkelijker gezegd dan gedaan, want wat wordt dan de rol en positie van de burger. Maar gaat het in het overleg daadwerkelijk om de burger of staan samenwerkingsperikelen centraal?

Decisions and business rules are essential Components of an organization. Combined, these components form a basis for securing the implementation of new laws, regulations and internal policies into processes, work instructions and information systems. To ensure proper implementation, business rule types must be taken into account, as the functions per type may be different. The current body of knowledge on decision and business rule management offers some insights into different types of business rules, however, these types are often presented as a secondary focus of a contribution or set in stone without proper evidence supporting these claims. This study therefore aims to explore the different business rule types utilized in the body of knowledge as well as practice. This will form a basis to determine possible overlap and inconsistencies and aid in establishing the functional differences between the defined business rule types. By applying a literature review, semi-structured interviews and secondary data analysis, we observed that the current body of knowledge shows serious diffusion with regards to business rule types, the same holds for practice. Therefore, future research should focus to research these differences in detail with the aim to harmonize the proliferation of business rule types.
