Flourishing demand for Clinical Decision Support System Industry

A clinical decision support system (CDSS) is a health information technology system that is designed to provide clinicians and other health professionals with clinical decision support (CDS), that is, assistance with clinical decision-making tasks. Robert Hayward of the Center for Health Evidence proposed a working definition: "Clinical decision support systems link health observations with health knowledge to influence physicians' health decisions to improve care Of the health". [Citation needed] CDSS are an important topic in intelligence in medicine.

A clinical decision support system has been defined as an "active knowledge system, which uses two or more elements of patient data to generate specific advice for each case". This implies that a CDSS is simply a decision support system that focuses on using knowledge management in such a way as to obtain clinical advice for patient care based on multiple elements of patient data.

The main goal of modern CDSS is to assist physicians at the point of care. This means that clinicians interact with a CDSS to help analyze and arrive at a diagnosis based on patient data. In the early days, CDSS were conceived to be used literally to make decisions for the physician. The physician would enter the information and wait for the CDSS to issue the "correct" option and the physician would simply act on that output. However, the modern methodology of using CDSS to help means that the clinician interacts with the CDSS, using both their own knowledge and the CDSS, to do better analysis of patient data than humans or CDSS could do for themselves. Typically, a CDSS makes suggestions for the physician to review, and the physician is expected to choose useful information from the presented results and discard erroneous CDSS suggestions.
