Simulconsult.com Website Review

Medical professionals can get a SIMULTANEOUS CONSULT about their patient's diagnosis using SimulConsult's diagnostic decision support enter patient findings into the software to get an initial differential diagnosis and suggestions about other useful findings, including tests. They can also send the Patient Summary output to radiology and genomic labs to improve communication, in lieu of a (EHR) and a lighter integration. The de*p integration improves docu*entation and communicating within a health system, and outputs include an editable note and structured data. Lighter integration using the EHR's resource links page offers IP-number based access and phenotype data entered by the referring clinician (or the lab genetic counselor), thereby using the full power of genome and phenome to converge quickly on a diagnosis. An innovative measure of pertinence of genes focuses attention on the genes related to the clinical picture, even if more than one gene is involved. The Genome Report enables fast selection of diagnoses, genes and variants, and export to reporting platforms, including the prognosis table to answer the clinician and patient question what should I expect. The database used by the software has > 6,700 diagnoses, and is most complete for genetics, neurology and increasingly pediatric rheumatology. It includes the genes with convincing human disease phenotypes in OMIM and the diseases in GeneReviews. The information about diseases is entered by clinicians, referenced to the literature and peer-reviewed by experts. The computational software goes well beyond search to take into account pertinent negatives, temporal information, and cost of tests, information ignored in other diagnostic approaches. It transforms medical diagnosis by lowering costs, reducing errors, improving docu*entation and eliminating the medical diagnostic odysseys experienced by far too many patients and their families.
