Comparing ‘clinical hunch’ against clinical decision support systems (PERC Rule, Wells score, revised Geneva score and YEARS criteria) in the diagnosis of acute pulmonary embolism.

2022-06-27

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background:</bold>Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a common and potentially life-threatening condition. Since it is considered a ‘do not miss’ diagnosis, PE tends to be over-investigated beyond the evidence-based clinical decision support systems (CDSS), which in turn subjects patients to unnecessary radiation and contrast agent exposure with no apparent benefits in terms of outcome.The...
