Description

Background and aims: Optimal information retrieval is one of the components of achieving evidence-based medicine. This study aimed to present the Conceptual framework of information retrieval system in the field of Gastroenterology and hepatology. Methods: Based on the previous two studies, the characteristics of the optimal information retrieval system from the perspective of gastroenterologists and hepatologists and the most important approaches and technologies used in the design of information retrieval systems in medical sciences have been used in designing the proposed conceptual framework. Results: The conceptual framework of the information retrieval system in the gastroenterology and hepatology was presented in 4 sections and the technical and content features were presented in each section. Conclusions: Considering the comparison of this research with other researches in the field of frameworks and conceptual models of retrieval systems, special needs of users and using methods of personalization of information as well as conceptual mapping of resources have been the most important differences with other researches.
