Effectiveness of a clinical knowledge support system for reducing diagnostic errors in outpatient care in Japan: a retrospective study.

Shimizu T, Nemoto T, Tokudab Y. Int J Med Inform. 2018;109:1-4.

This retrospective study found that clinicians who had access to a commercial clinical decision support tool made fewer diagnostic errors than clinicians who did not have access to the tool. The authors conclude that online clinical decision support from this platform improved diagnosis.
