A large percentage of the population don't have access to healthcare (attached). Even for those with access, busy physicians could make diagnostic errors due to human cognitive biases. Up to 10-20 percent of all diagnoses are either delayed, missed or wrong based on a recent study. How can we effectively solve this problem, collectively, as a group? That is how physiciancognition.com has started. (beta.physiciancognition.com).
We believe that technology should play a major role in solving this huge problem. Our clinical decision algorithm can capture collective wisdom and convert it into actionable steps. The algorithm is improving every day by beta users from about 50 countries. Here is a case published in NEJM unexplained fevers, pancytopenia and very high ferritin and our algorithm is able to generate intelligent differential diagnoses. Users can modify the algorithm to optimize…
